Dead In The Water
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If I was not myself
And you were someone else
I'd say so much to you
And I would tell the truth
´Cause I can't hardly breathe
When your hands let go of me
But the ice is thinning out
And my feet brace themselves
I'm dead in the water
Still looking for ya
I'm dead in the water
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
You've seen this all before
A life left on the shore
But smiling all the same
You sail away again
I'm dead in the water
Still looking for ya
I'm dead in the water
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
oh,oh,oh,oh,oh
Oh yeah
I'm dead in the water
Still looking for ya
I'm dead in the water
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
I'm dead in the water
Still looking for ya
I'm dead in the water
Can't you see?
I'm dead in the water
Still looking for ya
I'm dead in the water
Can't you see?
Can't you see?
