Water
Reffer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Some say water has no taste or smell
But today when the storm poured
Ravishing like we hadn't seen before
Cold drips rebound in my body
Heated up by the warmth of the day
If i could only rest
It would be easy do find its taste
With my eyes shut
My face up
After deep sight i could
Sense its smell
Find its taste
Build its shape
Build its smell
Sense its taste
Find its shape
Thoughts run through my mind
It all made me rave for a while
My life's slippery when wet

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Reffer's song "Water" represent a contemplation of the senses stimulated by water during a rainstorm. They begin with a reference to the common belief that water is tasteless and odorless, but the singer is quick to refute this notion. They describe how the storm pouring down around them is a profound sensory experience, ravishing and exhilarating as they feel the cold drips rebounding in their body. The warmth of the day provides a contrast to the coldness of the water, intensifying their perception of it. The singer suggests that if they could only rest, they could more fully appreciate the taste, smell, and shape of the water. They close by acknowledging how water can make life slippery when wet, a reminder of its power and danger.


The lyrics reflect a deeply embodied experience of nature and the way it affects our perceptions. The singer is attuned to the smallest details of the rainstorm, grateful for the chance to experience water in a new way. The song's focus on senses like taste and smell is not often found in song lyrics, making it stand out as a unique exploration of the human relationship to water.
