Cover art for Aquarius lyrics by Regina Spektor

This song's gorgeous. I agree that Regina's talking to God or some sort of higher power. I don't know if it's that she's lonely, but maybe that she feels she's been failing to fulfill her purpose in life (carrying water) because she isn't sure of what that purpose is, or how she can fulfill it. The only thing she is sure of is that she can love herself and those close to her. I get the feeling this is one of Regina's songs where she hasn't put another character in place of herself, especially since she was born in February. Aquarius or not, anyone can connect with this song.. Beautiful.
