Umphrey's McGee - Rocker lyrics

I'm still not able to understand I'm struggling here to deny it For if I knew this was all we had I wouldn't have said goodbye then It's only water, no spirit broken and all these things we've held on left unspoken Still the thought's enough to make me choke again I had a friend who couldn't sit still He'd think until his hands began to spill things Every morning he woke up And never thought he'd done enough the night before And its hard to break the habits that we make But don't you know that life could take it from you anyway If I could say it again I'd make you remember when All the things we shared were unimpaired by anything The feeling's not weathered out just yet There's no real way to describe it In thinking of all the plans unmet We've all been hardened to hide it It's only water, no spirit broken and all these things we've held on left unspoken Still the thought's enough to make me choke again
