Tightly attracted...like metal to a magnet
We'll see what positive and negative become
Since the moment of our birth
To this earth we are bound
Searching for water underground
We're two sides of a makeshift divining rod
We come together like a branch in the shape of a "y"
That's why we're drawn to the river, the lake, and the sound
Like the instinct of a deer...we can't help but bend an ear
When melody and harmony collide
Some things you can't explain
Like how a yin needs a yang
And how a lonely drop of water finds its way
Every compass needs a pole
Like every diamond needs a clump of coal
Like mallard and mate you can't separate the two
It's just me and you together
On a search for liquid treasure
That's hiding way down deep in mother earth
When elements combine...A molecule is defined
Like hydrogen and oxygen we're bound
Moss takes to a log...like a croak takes to the bullfrog
We're pulled together when water is to be found
