cool drink of h2o (kevin so)
You called me on a winter’s night
The timing was just right
I was feeling old, worn-out, and unattractive
But then you said you liked the way I looked
I couldn’t believe the chance you took
When all your friends thought you were simply crazy

Baby you’re like a cool drink of water
Baby you’re like a cool drink of water
Our clothes dropped to the bedroom floor
I felt so insecure
But you assured me I was just as fine as any man
The candles glowed, your skin it beamed
The angel that I’ve always dreamed
Your wings wrapped around a Chinese American

Baby you’re like a cool drink of water
Baby you’re like a cool drink of water
Your smile is like the setting sun
With me you want to run
To the edge of the world past all its small town pit stops
You say you’ll ride with me once you graduate
Defy all those who discriminate
You’ll proudly be my queen no matter what
Every time you take my hand
I’m trying to understand
I wonder why am I the one you lean on
Why is a woman like you so hard to find
You can tell the difference but you’re colorblind
I’m afraid in the morning I’ll wake up and you’ll be gone

Baby you’re like a cool drink of water
Baby you’re like a cool drink of water
