not sealed properly?
cracked lense?

best to have a look then you should be able to identify the problem

Has the "water" formed from excessive condensation do you think.

I used to suffer from condensation in a headlight. Drove around for an hour or so with my lights on during the day as well as the evening and ther heat from the bulbs dried the light out. Hasn't come back since.

I've had this before - turned out to be a tiny hole in the glass probably caused by a stone. Only solution in this case is new headlight but that could be costly unless you get one from a scrapper or take a chance on e-bay.
