Original text with translation

Standing On The Water

Richie Havens

Why do we surround ourselves with houses and big cars

Trying to make out we got it made

When nothing really belongs to us We’re only passing through

We’re part of a maskerade

When you are standing on the water

Talking to the walls

Making so much matter

Out of no matter at all

Got to get a hold of ourselves

So easy to fall

Standing on the water

Talking to the walls

We act we look around us We see trouble everywhere

Thieving money air that we breath

I know we would like to hang out

In the country for a while

There is something that you just can’t believe

When we’re standing on the water

Talking to the walls

Making so much matter

That’s of no matter at all

Got to get a hold of ourselves

So easy to fall

When we’re standing on the water

Talking to the walls

So many pictures looking at us through a smile

Making us want things we don’t need

So many people telling us just what to do What we are and what we should be When we’re standing on the water

Talking to the walls

Making so much matter

That’s of no matter at all

Got to get a hold of ourselves

So easy to fall

Standing on the water

Talking to the walls

Talking to the walls

Talking to the walls
