Lyrics
Undertow
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.
She left for Austin, Suitcase in her hand,
So taunt and tired of no one understanding her.
She worked the nights, just to make the rent.
She spends them hours there just thinking of, the way it should have been
Maybe what it all comes down to,
Maybe what it all comes down to,
Sometimes your world gets caught beneath the undertow,
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it's both.
Sometimes your world gets caught beneath the undertow,
You're not alone, You're not alone.
Woah oh, woah oh
She's never seen the Ocean, but it's right there in her mind.
Barefeet running in the water, she goes there every time
She wears her heartache, she wears that cotten dress
We all got scars we try to hide, we're all the same I guess.
Maybe what it all comes down to,
Maybe what it all comes down to,
Sometimes your world gets caught beneath the undertow
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it's both
Sometimes your world gets caught beneath the undertow
You're not alone.
Give it all to find yourself.
Give it all to find yourself.
Give it all to find yourself.
You're ready to find new hope.
Sometimes your world gets caught beneath the undertow
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it's both
Sometimes your world gets caught beneath the undertow
You're not alone, You're not alone.
Woah, woah, woah, oh
No you're not alone, no
No you're not alone, no
Yeah we got so much to give, oh oh.
