Lyrics

I've known you forever
Now forever is over
And sometimes I wonder
Is there water in Missoula?
Is there life after Asheville
Anything east of Memphis
To keep me from finding
Water in Missoula?

And I don't think I'd fare so poorly
Somewhere besides here
For a portion of your fortune
I'm gonna play
For whatever you can spare
Thirty-seven dollars
Nickels, dimes and quarters
It all gets me closer to
Water in Missoula

Moss under my soles
I'm somewhat complacent
Maybe what's in order
Is a latitude adjustment
My life would spin slower
Closer to the border
I'm just a fool missing you
Chasing water in Missoula

And I don't think I'd fare so poorly
Somewhere besides here
For a portion of your fortune
I'm gonna play
For whatever you can spare
Thirty-seven dollars
Nickels, dimes and quarters
It all gets me closer to
Water in Missoula

Bigger skies ahead of me
West of the big river
Chasing a morning shadow
Trying to find a treasure
In the heart of five valleys
That's where you'll find me
In the next best place
Beside the water in Missoula

In the next best place
Beside the water in Missoula
