I could hear the music from across the valley
Where the smoke hangs in the pine trees
And I could hear the people shouting and jiving
People not like me

Something in the water told me
I could walk across this valley
I could break down those walls
And show her my heart

Something in the water told me
There's a better place I can be
Right there, right there waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side

She says I should be there
But something's telling me to stay away
Instinct or fear, I can't say
But there's only one pathway
From where I am and where you are
Only one light in the darkness, darkness

Something in the water told me
I could walk across this valley
I could break down those walls
And show her my heart

Something in the water told me
There's a better place I can be
Right there, right there waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side, the other side

I never knew what I was doing
I was too young to see
I never knew what I was doing
But now I know that I could be
I could be your shining stone
If you let me

Something in the water told me
I could walk across this valley
I could break down those walls
And show her heart
Something in the water told me
There's a better place I can be
Right there, right there

Something in the water told me
I could walk across this valley
I could break down those walls
And show her heart

Something in the water told me
There's a better place I can be
Right there, right there waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side
Waiting on the other side
