Rick Springfield - Misty Water Woman Lyrics
I was driving round, as the sun went downWhen I came upon a lake, the sign said misty waterAnd standing there, with wet and tangled hair was a girlShe said her name was bo, she was a farmers daughterI said get in, Ill take you home, you must be coldMisty water womanYou never get to herMisty water womanYou never get to touch herAnd feel her nearIt began to storm, and our talk grew warmTill I stopped the car outside a cold and lonely placeI said were hereBut she had disappearedAnd on the seat was a pool of tearsAnd a handkerchief of laceI did not see her leaveI was amazedMisty water womanYou never get to herMisty water womanYou never get to touch herAnd feel her warmI sped into the house,It took her father and her mother to straighten me outWhat was it all aboutPlease let me knowShe looked sad, and he looked madAnd he said, yes youre right, once we had a daughterHer name was bo, but that was long agoYears have gone since she drowned at misty waterAnd the way he took it, took me by surpriseMisty water womanYou never get to herMisty apparitionYou never get to touch herAnd feel her near
