Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Drank further away from the shore
And deeper into the drink

Sat on the bottom of the ocean
A sturn and stubborn rock
Your songs remind of swimming
But somehow I forgot

I was sinking and now I'm sunk
I was drinking and now I'm drunk
Your songs remind of swimming
But somehow I forgot

I tried to remember the chorus
I can't remember the verse
'Cause that song that sent me swimming
Is now the life jacket that burst

Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor
Singing like a siren that can't swim anymore
Your songs remind of swimming
But I can't swim anymore

Pull me out the water, cold and blue
I open my eyes and see that it's you
So I dive straight back in the ocean
So I dive straight back in the ocean

Take a deep breath
Suck the water in my chest
Take a deep breath
Suck the water in my chest
And cross my fingers
And I hope for the best

Then all of a sudden, I heard in a note
It started in my chest
And ended in my throat

Then I realised, then I realised, then I realised
I was swimming, yes, I was swimming
And now I'm swimming, yes, I'm swimming

Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started to sink
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started
Your songs remind me of swimming
Which I forgot when I started to sink
