Lyrics

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 'Cause your songs remind me of swimming But somehow I forgot. I was sinking and now I'm sunk 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 'Cause 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 'Cause 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 I dive straight back in the ocean So I 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 Cross my fingers and 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 realized, then I realized Then I realized I was swimming Yes I was swimming And now I'm 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
