lyrics

DEEP WATER
I was sure I saw a flicker in your eye
Of something under the surface that you try to hide

You are hiding in deep water
Only bubbles come out your mouth
What are you thinking, oh what are you hiding?
I’m dying to find out.

Sometimes when I meet your eye
I feel like we both think the same thing
Oh I find every time I say goodbye
I really don’t want to be leaving
And when we make conversation
I feel like we’re grasping for words
And while we talk about meaningless things
We are trying to calm our nerves

You are hiding in deep water
Only bubbles come out your mouth
What are you thinking, oh what are you hiding?
I’m dying to find out

When you lift your head from deep water
Well won’t you speak to me?
Show me what you are thinking and hiding
And your troubled mind will be free

You were hiding in deep water
Only bubbles came out your mouth
What are you thinking, oh what are you hiding
Well now I’ve found out
