There's nothing that I can say To make you want to stay here with me forever There's nothing that I can do To make you want me like I need you to I need you to Just give me one last chance to say this Just give me one last chance to say what's on my mind And I will get it right If I could only get my head above the water for a moment of your time But you seem so strong and I can't hold my breath for long Have you ever tried to scream underwater? You'll choke, you'll choke You said I always sang too loud to sing you a love song Well, I save my soft voice for the things I really mean You always said I had a hard time saying what's on my mind Well, here it goes I hate you for what you've done to me Just give me one last chance to say this Just give me one last chance to say what's on my mind And I will get it right If I could only get my head above the water for a moment of your time But you seem so strong and I can't hold my breath for long Have you ever tried to scream underwater? You'll choke, you'll choke When the last word's been said and the last tear's been shed I will miss you, miss you my friend And I can't tell you lies Even after all these years I still cry
