Coldplay Lyrics
"Glass Of Water"

Scared of losing all the time
He wrote it in a letter, he was a friend of mine
He heard you could see your future inside a glass of water
With ripples and the lines
And he asked 'Will I see heaven in mine?'

That is just the way it was
Nothing could be better and nothing ever was
Oh, they say you can see your future inside a glass of water
The riddles and the rhymes
Will I see heaven in mine?

Oh, oh, oh, oh, ah son
Don't ask
Neither how full nor empty is your glass
Cling to the mast
Spend your whole life living in the past
Going nowhere fast

So he wrote it on a wall
The hollowest of halos is no halo at all
Television selling plastic figurines of leaders saying nothing at all
And you chime, stars in heaven align

Oh, oh, oh, oh, ah son
Don't ask
Neither how full nor empty is your glass
Cling to the mast
Spend your whole life living in the past
Going nowhere fast

What are we drinking when we're done?
Glasses of water
