Drowning

Why do we waste time pretending that things can work out? Life is a series of endings I've learned that by now You smell like rain On a summer's day But you say you wish you'd met me later I say I feel like I'm drowning You say you feel fine Will it always be like this? Is it a matter of time? Am I really your lover? Do you want me to be? Maybe I'm just in too deep But your silence deafens me And I'm drowning I stare at the stars 'til they look like you They talk my dreams to sleep I run out of words to describe you 'Cause I'm too scared to speak When my debt is repaid I'm so afraid That you'll say you wish that I'd just leave I say I feel like I'm drowning You say you feel great 'When did things get so serious?' Is that all you can say? Am I really your lover? You say don't expect that from me Maybe I'm just in too deep But your silence deafens me And I'm drowning Ooh Mm
