Can you breathe beneath the water? Can you taste the salt through your skin? Around you all you see is ocean darkness. But darling you can be the light within. Cold, vast and sorely empty The waves they crash above your head It's miles to go before you reach the surface Surrounded by a darkness that seems dead Cling to me and let me take you under I know your heart is heavy and so is mine Between us two, we could have forever And always too, if you have the time So sink, my dear and let the ocean take you I'll flip the whole world upside down What was sunk a while, could float again And make the topside of the sea your crown Sink with me that I may raise you higher Don't resist, I promise I'll be true You'll breathe again and I will keep you safer So down you float; I'll bring you back to you.
