Swim Away

You can take my time up
I won't say no
Lately, it's been hard for
Me to let you go
Give me all that I want
I'll give you what you need
This river goes for miles, baby
Will you take the lead
Cause I can't and I won't
Make the same mistake
Jumping in the lake
Leading with my face
But you're calling my name
And it sounds so sweet
Maybe this time
I'll just dip in my feet
We're testing the water to see who floats
The tide is high today
I'm holding my breath trying not to choke
On these things I say
This stream's drifting, shifting, lifting me up so I'll stay
Wading in these waters before we swim away
Can we take some time up
Before we submerge
Diving in too quickly
Will cause a tidal surge
Going underwater
Can silence scary sounds
But the last thing that I want to feel
Is to feel what it's like to drown
So I can't and I won't
Make the same mistake
Jumping in the lake
Leading with my face
But you're calling my name
And it sounds so sweet
Maybe this time
I'll just dip in my feet
We're testing the water to see who floats
The tide is high today
I'm holding my breath trying not to choke
On these things I say
This stream's drifting, shifting, lifting me up so I'll stay
Wading in these waters before we swim away
Swim away
Swim away
I don't know where we'll go
I don't know if I'll know
But I know how to love
And I know that I'll grow
Let the waves wash away
What I long to let go
We'll just keep on swimming
Until we find home
We're testing the water to see who floats
The tide is high today
I'm holding my breath trying not to choke
On these things I say
This stream's drifting, shifting, lifting me up so I'll stay
(I think I'm gonna stay)
Wading in these waters before we swim away
Swim away
Swim away
Swim away
Swim away
Wading in these waters baby
Swim away
Swimming 'til we find home baby
Swim away
