(Yo, KP, that you?)

I can't get you out my head
I can see you in my dreams
Like you're layin' in my bed
Then why you turned on me?
Do you remember what you said?
You would never leave
Thought I had you for life
Mm-hmm

Lost times that I can't let go
Still hurts, but I won't let it show
More shots and I just might call, oh
And a nigga ain't hatin'
But you'll never replace me
You still on my mind

There's something in the water
(It don't feel the same)
There's something in the water
Must be something in the water
(It don't feel the same)
'Cause you still on my mind (yeah)
There's something in the-

They said that gettin' over you
I should get under somebody new
But that didn't phase me
'Cause I'm missin' my baby
I'm not gonna lie, no, no
I thought that I had you for life

Lost times that I can't let go
Still hurts, but I won't let it show
More shots and I just might call, oh
And a nigga ain't hatin' (yeah, I know you ain't hatin')
But you'll never replace me
You still on my mind

There's something in the water
(It don't feel the same)
There's something in the water (oh, something)
Must be something in the water
(It don't feel the same, no)
'Cause you still on my mind
There's something in the-

Ooh, yeah
Whoa, whoa, oh
Oh, yeah (ah)
Baby
Something
Maybe there's something, ooh
Got me feelin' some type of way

There's something in the water (ooh)
There's something in the water (ooh, oh)
Must be something in the water (ooh, it don't feel the same)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Tone Stith's song "Something In The Water" express the feelings of heartbreak and longing for a lost love. The singer cannot forget their former partner, even though they have turned on him and left him. He remembers the promises that were made and thought that they would be together for life. The pain of the breakup is still present, but the singer tries not to show it. He considers calling their ex after having more drinks but admits that someone new cannot replace the love he had for his former partner. There is something that doesn't feel right, as though he is affected by an unseen force that keeps him trapped in his emotions.


The chorus repeats the phrase "There's something in the water" and leaves the listener wondering what that "something" might be. The water could represent the emotions that are difficult to navigate or the memories that are hard to let go of. It could also refer to the idea that there is some kind of mystical or supernatural force that is causing the singer to feel the way he does. The song ends with a series of moans and groans that suggest that the singer is still feeling the effects of this "something" in the water.
