Intro / / / / /
Your songs remind me of swimming,
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Dragged further away from the shore,
And deeper into the drink
Sat on the bottom of the ocean,
A stern and stubborn rock
Cos your songs remind me of swimming,
But somehow I forgot
I was sinking, now I'm sunk
And I was drinking, and now I'm drunk
Your songs remind me of swimming,
But somehow I forgot.
I tried to remember the chorus,
I can't remember the verse
Cos that song that sent me swimming,
Is now the life jacket that burst
Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor,
Sinking like a siren that can't swim anymore
Coz your songs remind me of swimming,
But I can't swim anymore
Pull me out the water, cold and blue,
I open my eyes and see that it's you,
So Ill dive straight back in the ocean
Yes Ill dive straight back in the ocean
Take a deep breath suck the water in my chest
Take a deep breath suck the water in my chest
Then cross my fingers,
Then Ill hope for the best
Then all of a sudden, I heard a note,
It started in my chest, and ended in my throat
Then I realise
Then I realise
Then I realised
I was swimming, yes I was swimming
And now Im swimming, yes I am swimming
Your songs remind me of swimming,
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Oh your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started
To sink.
