I wish that I was staying longer But I been called into the light Something 'bout you makes me stronger But all the lows, they feel like highs I'm sorry that I never told you But I will never lose the faith Through the stars, over the oceans I'll meet you there someday So lay me down, in the water Let me drown, don't let my feet touch the ground Kiss me now, until it's over We're running out of time When I'm with you, I can hear them singing My tears will fall when my eyes close With you, I am always winning And that feeling never goes So lay me down, in the water Let me drown, don't let my feet touch the ground Kiss me now, until it's over We're running out of time I wish we could rewrite our story, love is extraordinary Try to say the words but make no sound If God is real, then reassure me Take my hand and hold me closely Show me that you'll always be around If my heart is never found But love is all we needed But time let us down I can feel you getting lighter Your eyes are shining brighter You're finally coming home Don't have to wait no longer I know I made you stronger I know you're not alone So lay me down, in the water Let me drown, don't let my feet touch the ground When we're found But love was all we needed But time let us down When we're found But love was all we needed But time let us down
