It's a cold night, I should hold you As you tell me the bad news That you're locked away from me That you're leaving me lonely It's the wrong night to have bad dreams Cause I know what it all means As I'm dragged way down under In the storm and the thunder Longing for the walls to break down No one hears you when you're drowning Somebody hold back the flood Cause I'm sailing on a pool of tears And I'm waiting, counting down our broken years See I'm sailing on a pool of tears And I'm waiting, as the day disappears It's a long night, I can't sleep Waters flowing round my feet And it's making me colder Like we've grown so much older There's a river underneath us Rising up to defeat us Full of fear full of danger Like a terrible stranger Lonely but for all I stay home Slowly sinking and I'm thinking When is the dam gonna break? Cause I'm sailing on a pool of tears And I'm waiting, counting down our broken years See I'm sailing on a pool of tears And I'm waiting, as the day disappears Longing for the walls to break down No one hears you when you're drowning Somebody hold back the flood It's a cold night, I should hold you As you tell me the bad news That you're locked away from me That you're leaving me lonely It's the wrong night to have bad dreams Cause I know what it all means As I'm dragged way down under In the storm and the thunder See I'm sailing on a pool of tears And I'm waiting, counting down our broken years See I'm sailing on a pool of tears And I'm waiting, as the day disappears See I'm sailing And I'm waiting See I'm sailing And I'm waiting As the day disappears Oh-oh-ohhhhh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
