Water Tank
© 2004 Russ and Scott Bell

She came into the Dairy Queen on a late Friday night.
In a red tank top she made my head feel light.
She ordered a coke and then asked my name.
Our hands touched when I handed her the change.

I walked out the door soon after my shift.
She was waiting for me and offered a lift.
We talked until the store closed down.
Then I asked, ?watcha wanna do now??

Lets go paint our names on a water tank, for the whole wide world to see.
I don?t care what people think, this is just between you and me.
And you can hold my hand if you want to as the sun lifts off the ground.
Lets go paint our names on a water tank,
as we?re climbin? up we?ll be laughin? out loud.

Ten year anniversary is coming up next month.
I?ve shopped all over this town with out any luck.
Do you know what I?m going through?
She just said, ?the only thing I want from you.?

Go on and paint my name on a water tank, for the whole wide world to see.
I don?t care what people think this is just between you and me.
And you can hold my hand and I?ll understand, what we?re all about.
Go on and paint my name on a water tank,
and love me?you can love me out loud.

Here I am at the end of my days,
looking back, I?ve been blessed by your grace.
As I stare into your beautiful eyes,
only one thought comes to my mind.

Lets go paint our names on a water tank, for the whole wide world to see.
I don?t care what people think this is just between you and me.
And you can say a prayer if you want to as my soul lifts off the ground.
Lets go paint our names on a water tank,
let me love you, let me love you out loud.
