Drowning, just as fast as I can. But don't throw me a line, don't reach out your hand.
I'm on the brink of something beautiful and I want to sing about it, but I don't know
to begin. Write it in a letter, but the words don't come out right. Trying to explain
nobody can do me like. You don't understand how helpless I can get. Since the day that we
Oh can you feel it yet?

I could feel something different for the first time. Heaven made sense and all the
rhymed. No chance of stopping now. I'm taking it all. And now I'm caught in the air, its a
glide. Pass it up, wouldn't dare what a wild ride. I remember being ready and waiting to
Just like I did tonight.

Spinning around and around. Until my left was my right and up became down. With just
look you knocked me off of my feet. So unable to speak. Oh how you made me weak. Though it
a while ago, I still can recall.
That moment so ready, and waiting to fall. Can you take me back in time remembering when
captured my heart? Over and over again.
