Underwater Songtext
You took your time
you took what you needed

you placed your hands upon my eyes
you took what was needed

you used to laugh about my pride
as you danced with echoes in my mind

and i have been holding tight
to driftwood on a waiting shore

[Chorus]
so I'll hold you underwater
breathe with me if you can
slowly fading with the sunlight
your face is turning blank

and the school girls dream of olden towns
lemon lips and sunset walks
but I'll hold you underwater
while i can

your words don't come out clear this time
as you press your lips close to me dear

i won't cry for my sins
i won't cry for her
i won't
cry

[Chorus]
so I'll hold you underwater
breathe with me if you can
slowly fading with the sunlight
your face is turning blank

and the school girls dream of olden towns
lemon lips and sunset walks
but I'll hold you underwater
while i can

oh don't you wonder
how I'm coping with your smoky ways

cos i can still remember

your face when you walked into the room
the smell of your hair and your cheap perfume
your skin pressed against my arm and thigh
the way you turned and sang into my ear

oh my dear you're dying

[Chorus]
so I'll hold you underwater
breathe with me if you can
slowly fading with the sunlight
your face is turning blank

and the school girls dream of olden towns
lemon lips and sunset walks
but I'll hold you underwater
while i can
