Taking On Water

You call me when you're coming through town
You leave me with my skies falling down
You say it's 'cause you're lonely that's all
Maybe leavings what leaves me better off
Tell me someday you wanna stay
You think its better when you're running away
It's your eyes that keep me hanging around
Make me drive all night to get to your house
You know i'm taking on water
You know i'm taking on water
You know i'm taking on water
I'll wait up one more night to believe
You've got the time to give up on me
To pull me from wreckage inside
I've been drowning in the heartache i hide
You know i'm taking on water
You know i'm taking on water
You know i'm taking on water
Just go if you won't leave
I think we both know where you're wanted to be
You know i'm taking on water
You know i'm taking on water
You know i'm taking on water
You know i'm taking on water
