Wouldn't that be something If I spread my wings and showed you I could fly away? Wouldn't that be something If I asked you to fly with me on some wild and windy day? Wouldn't that be something If we both fell together and you threw your arms Around me like you needed me Wouldn't that be something? Hey, wouldn't that be something? You'd probably laugh if you could see the dream I had last night You and I together on a maiden rocket flight You were seated there beside me with that happy frightened look You and I got young again on that rocket flight we took Now wouldn't that be something If you could look at me and see somebody great again? Wouldn't that be something If you could sing to me today I started loving you again? Wouldn't that be something If we could look inside each other's minds And always find each other when we needed to? Wouldn't that be something Wouldn't that be something

Water and fire Water and fire Strange bedfellows When they roll as one Water and blood Water and blood Trading death for life As they roll away We named it beargrass It rolled before us It rolls among us It will roll after we've gone Water and life Water and life Where does one end And the other begin
