Lyrics

Someone find me somewhere to hide
cause this might not be my place
Grown too accustomed to confiding the ins and outs of my days
In no particular way, I am trying to steady my feet on the sand, but as she smiles and waves I am sliding into the sea...

Tip tap I feel her on my shoulder, she's rolling me over to the hope of another day
Splish splash the water's getting colder and we're both getting older so I don't think I can wait anymore, but with her it's always unsure
Should I take the bait, or ignore all the signs that seem to implore me?

She's got me swimming caught in the undertow
I just don't think I can fight it anymore
I probably should be swimming parallel to shore but darlin' girl I want more, I want more, I want more...

Never have I been on time
If I was right could be mine, but instead I sit and share my wine
with friends who claim this isn't good for me
Talking 'bout shouldn't be's
Saying "John, why can't you see
she's moved on to other things?"
Temporary lovers bring her to lingering where actions speak louder than will
I keep holding on until I don't think I can wait anymore, but with her its always unsure Should I hesitate or explore all these signs that seem to implore me?

She's got me swimming caught in the undertow
I just don't think I can fight it anymore
I probably should be swimming parallel to shore, but darlin' girl I want more, I want more, I want more...

She picks me up and I fall into the sea
No she's not stopping to let me breathe
Salt in my eyes so I can barely see
This girl's got a hold on me and she said...

I know you're all mine.

She's got me swimming caught in the undertow
I just don't think I can fight it anymore
I probably should be swimming parallel to shore, but darlin' girl I want more...

I probably should be swimming away. Yea, but darlin' girl...
