Optimism failed but it's alright 'Cause I go blind when sunlight hits my eyes We're swimming fast, I'll just pretend I'm fine But to you, my dear, I feel worse when I lie (To you, oh) Constant revelations in the night And I tried to sleep, but always picking fights The ups and downs are subdued But patience is a virtue Crests and troughs will always kiss the sky (Above, oh) Save me, oh the water's to my neck, oh Save me, and the tide's getting higher, so Save me, oh the water's to my neck, oh The water's to my neck, oh Foam and surf are breaking in the dark Easier to miss the boat when you miss the mark Driving empty highways without headlights to guide But the PCH is already in sight (You and me, go) Save me, oh the water's to my neck, oh Save me, and the tide's getting higher, so Save me, oh the water's to my neck, oh The water's to my neck, oh 'Cause I wanted us to go to the waves (To the waves) And I wanted us to go to the waves (To the waves) 'Cause I always wanna be where you're standing next to me Right here, right now, not there or anywhere else I wanted us to go to the waves (To the waves) And I wanted us to go to the waves (To the waves) 'Cause you're holding onto me, throw myself into the sea Right here, right now, not there or anywhere else I was up late, and I didn't get your phone call My mistake, I'll just fall in love at midnight Mixing all day as I'm swimming with the sine waves All night long And I wanted us to go to the waves And I wanted us to go to the waves And I Right here, right now Right here, right now Right here, right now Not there or anywhere else Or anywhere else
