Above 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.
They never tell you everything
You're gonna need to know
I barely know to swim
But I'm trying to stay afloat
Lost out here
Lost out near the ocean
So unclear just where I'm going
Oh, it never lets go
It's just getting harder
But you keep my head above the water
And you're pulling me along so much father
Father than I thought I could go
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Go, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It's the look you give me
When I'm ready to throw it in
And when I think I'm at the end
You show me where to begin
Waiting through, waiting through
All the ways
Oh, it's you, you keep the last in me
Oh, it never lets go
It's just getting harder
But you keep my head above the water
And you're pulling me along so much father
Father than I thought I could go
No, it never lets go
It's just getting harder
But you keep my head above the water
And you're pulling me along so much father
Father than I thought I could go
No rest, no time
To take it all in someday
We'll find a chance to spend
Looking back at where some went
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
It never lets go
It's just getting harder
But you keep my head above the water
And you're pulling me along so much father
Father than I thought I could go
No, it never lets go
It's just getting harder
But you keep my head above the water
And you're pulling me along so much father
Father than I thought I could go
No, it never lets go
It's just getting harder
But you keep my head above the water
And you're pulling me along so much father
Father than I thought I could go
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Go, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah
It's just getting harder
But you keep my head above the water
