Flood gates, can't wait

Here she comes, shut'em fast

Better shut'em fast

Too late, swept away

Feel the rush after the fact

Coming up beneath me

Never been in love so

 Deeply before

I am close to the waterline

I thought that I'd been over my head

For the last time

I'm so close to the waterline

And the way I'm loving her now

 I know this is bound to go down as the big one.

Whistle blast, lights flash

Throw a rope, grab a hold

Feel the undertow

She laughs, waves crash

What's the use I can't let her go

Coming up beneath me

Never been in love so

 Deeply before

I am close to the waterline

I thought that I'd been over my head

For the last time

I'm so close to the waterline

And the way I'm loving her now

 I know this is bound to go down as the big one.

Flood gates, can't wait

Here she comes, shut'em fast

Better shut'em fast

Too late, swept away

Feel the rush after the fact

I’m so close to the waterline

And the way I'm loving her now

 I know this is bound to go down as the big one.

I am close to the waterline

I thought that I'd been over my head

For the last time

I'm so close to the waterline

And the way I'm loving her now

 I know this is bound to go down as the big one.
