It May Be the Water Lyrics


I look at all the things I put you through
I've often wondered how it bothered you
I know how close I came to losing you
But we managed to stay alive
I guess only the strong survive
I just gotta tell you babySometimes love can be so cruel
Sometimes we learn 'bout being a fool
I don't know why girl, we've lasted so long?
It may be the water that keeps us strongI took for granted that you'd always be there
I know it seemed at times I didn't care
I didn't know what you had given me
But with love it takes some time
But through the joy and pain you're mine
I just gotta tell you babySometimes love can be so cruel
Sometimes we learn 'bout being a fool
I don't know why girl, we've lasted so long?
It may be the water that keeps us strong
It may be the water that keeps us strongYou know that I'm so glad to say, oh baby

That it all turned out this way 'cause you know that
It almost slipped away, oh baby
But we managed to stay alive
I guess only the strong survive
I just gotta tell you babySometimes love can be so cruel
Sometimes we learn 'bout being a fool
I don't know why girl, we've lasted so long?
It may be the water that keeps us strongYou know that I'm so glad to say, oh baby
That it all turned out this way, cause you know that
It almost slipped away, oh baby
But we managed to stay alive
I guess we found that only the strong survive
So I just had to tell you babySometimes love can be so cruel
Sometimes we learn 'bout being a fool
I don't know why girl, we've lasted so long?
It may be the water that keeps us strong
It may be the water that keeps us strongIt may be the water
Keeps us strong
It may be the water, baby
Keeps us strong
It may be the water
Keeps us strong
It may be the water that keeps us strong

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Lionel Brockman Richie, Jr. (born June 20, 1949 in Tuskegee, Alabama) is an American R&B singer, songwriter, composer, and occasional actor. He got his start as the front man for the Commodores, a nationally popular Motown band during the 70's. They had several hits such as Easy, Three Times a Lady, and probably the Commodores' most famous hit, Brick House.

Richie quit the band in 1981 for a solo career. He released his self-titled debut in 1982. The album hit No. 3 on the charts and sold over 4 million copies. His follow up album, Can't Slow Down, sold over twice as many copies and won the Grammy for Album of the Year in '84. His third album, '86's Dancing On The Ceiling spawned such hits as Say You, Say Me, Dancing on the Ceiling, and Se La, but would be the end of his commercial success.

His 90's albums such as Back to Front, Louder Than Words, and Time all failed to achieve the previous decade's commercial success. Some of his recent work, such as the album Renaissance, has returned to his older style, hoping to achieve more success.
