Bette Midler - Waterfalls Lyrics

"Waterfalls" is a song originally recorded by TLC.

A lonely mother gazing out of her window
Staring at a son that she just can't touch
If at any time he's in a jam she'll be by his side
But he doesn't realize he hurts her so much

But all the praying just ain't helping at all
'Cause he can't seem to keep his self out of trouble
So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how
Another body laying cold in the gutter

Don't go chasing waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast

Little precious has a natural obsession
For temptation but he just can't see
She gives him loving that his body can't handle
But all he can say is "Baby, it's good to me."

One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror
But he doesn't recognize his own face
His health is fading and he doesn't know why
Three letters took him to his final resting place
I told him

Don't go chasing waterfalls
Just stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast

Don't go chasing waterfalls
Just stick to the rivers and the lakes that you're used to
I know that you're gonna have it your way or nothing at all
But I think you're moving too fast...

Be My Baby
One Fine Day
Bei Mir Bist Du Schon
Baby It's You
Tell Him
He's Sure the Boy I Love
Mr. Sandman
Come and Get These Memories
Too Many Fish in the Sea
Teach Me Tonight
Waterfalls
You Can't Hurry Love
Give Him A Great Big Kiss
Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow
It's the Girl
