We called it holy water
Nobody could understand
We called it holy, holy water
I can still remember
Just as clear as yesterday
Though the years have gone by
Since I moved away
At the innocence of youth
This place was everything I knew

We called it holy water
Nobody could understand
Out in the desert land where lonely eagles cried
And every drop of water
In our faces kissed away
My heart, the part I left here, call to me again
Warm summer rain

How this place has changed now
Used to be a busy town
But the sound of silence
Is all that I have found
Only scattered pieces of a memory
On the whispering wind

We called it holy water
Nobody could understand
Out in the desert land where lonely eagles cried
And every drop of water
In our faces kissed away
My heart, the part I left here, call to me again
The summer rains

We were never separated, two of a kind
And then suddenly apart, wasn't right
We called it holy water
Nobody could understand
Out in the desert land where nobody could understand
And every drop of water
In our faces kissed away
My heart, the part I left here, called to me again
We called it holy water
Nobody could understand
We called it holy, holy water
One summer rain
