Waterfall

Bill Withers, he was singin' this song
It was on the radio I had to sing along
The fellas in the background doin' their thing goin' (mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm)

Martha Reeves, she was dancin' in the street
Everybody's dancin', shufflin' their feet
And the Vandellas sang in the background they were goin' (everybody's dancin', ooh-ooh)

No, we're never goin' back
No, we're never goin' back
Never goin' back, no, no

'Cause, under the waterfall
I know just how you're feelin'
Under the waterfall
I feel your heart a beatin'

And under the waterfall of life
We all need a little healin'
Under the waterfall
Under the waterfall

Oh, life is a wonderful thing
And I'm so grateful for everything it brings
But it can get you down sometimes
It can turn you inside out

Now I've had the money and the fame
Thought that it would save me but somehow I'm the same
I'm still the boy I used to be
I replay the memories

No, we're never goin' back
No, we're never goin' back
Never goin' back no, no

'Cause, under the waterfall
I know just how you're feelin'
Under the waterfall
I feel your heart a beatin'

And under the waterfall of life
We all need a little healin'
Under the waterfall
Under the waterfall

If only my father had recognised
I was standin' on my own two feet
And lettin' go is bitter-sweet, yeah
If only my mother had realised
That life it goes, oh, so fast
Can't stay forever livin' in the past

'Cause, under the waterfall
I know just how you're feelin'
Under the waterfall
I feel your heart a beatin'

And under the waterfall of life
We all need a little healin'
Under the waterfall
Under the waterfall
