Water Runs Over the Dam Copyright ©2011 Colin Ward


V1
Sometimes I look in a mirror and wonder,
Who do I see standing there,
Grey hairs and lines that have paid all their dues,
There’s a book long adventure if anyone cares

V2
From a suburb near London not far from the Stones,
And a house where music was heard,
To the cold Midwest with warm girls and guitars,
And a traveling life to cities that blurred

Chorus
The past is what makes us who we are today,
And the future should come with a plan,
But living the moment is all that we have,
And the water runs over the dam, the dam,
The water runs over the dam

Oooh, Oooh, Oooh x 2

V3
Went to the mountains and moved to the south,
Found sunshine and gave up the snow,
Sailed in the breeze, played guitar once again,
Sometimes I wonder how much I know

Bridge
An ordinary life with a job and a wife,
No drama, a few ups and downs,
While others I know didn’t go with the flow,
A black cloud keeps hanging around
A black cloud keeps hanging around

Chorus
