Lyrics
Underwater
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.
Far from the cranks and the voyeurs
The bars and the banks and the lawyers' fees
We could be adrift in calmer seas
The witnesses were all in their good clothes
The jury takes the cash and the hood goes free
Nothing much to do with you or me
Underwater, it's only my heart I hear
Underwater, underwater
Underwater, blue, deep and clear
Underwater, underwater
I said I'd change the things that are wrong
I've been sayin' that for oh-so long
I keep quittin' but the show goes on
She closes the door and she's stranded
Living out a dream that was handed down
And day runs into day in that same old town
They're ripping up the roads that we ran in
And Daddy's gonna be the richest man in hell
A picture of the cliff where they say he fell
Underwater, it's only my heart I hear
Underwater, underwater
Underwater, blue, deep and clear
Underwater, underwater
I said I'd change the things that are wrong
I've been sayin' that for oh-so long
I keep quittin' but the show goes on
Whether you're a servant or master
I believe in gettin' what you're after now
Just need a chance to remember how
Underwater, it's only my heart I hear
Underwater, underwater
Underwater, blue, deep and clear
Underwater, underwater
Underwater, underwater
Underwater, it's only my heart I hear
Underwater, underwater
Underwater, blue, deep and clear
Underwater, underwater
