Swimming in Quicksand
Sometimes I know that you love me
Sometimes I just can't tell
I can feel myself going under
Got me dizzy just standing still
Out here on the edge of forever
You're looking down from dry land
Need a branch or a rope you can throw me
Oh, I'm a drowning man
I'm paddling and kicking my feet
With every touch it gets harder to breathe
Don't know if this love is gonna last
Or I'm swimming in quicksand
Every kiss I fall little lower
Girl I wish that we could take it slow
I'm reaching out and eyes paralyze me
Oh what a way to go
I'm paddling and kicking my feet
With every touch it gets harder to breathe
Don't know if this love is gonna last
Or I'm swimming in quicksand
Everybody says I'm in way over my head
But Girl I'd rather be sinking into love with you
Than high and dry with somebody else
I'm paddling and kicking my feet
With every touch it gets harder to breathe
Don't know if this love is gonna last, it's gonna last
Or I'm swimming in quicksand
Sometimes I just can't tell
I can feel myself going under
Got me dizzy just standing still
Out here on the edge of forever
You're looking down from dry land
Need a branch or a rope you can throw me
Oh, I'm a drowning man
I'm paddling and kicking my feet
With every touch it gets harder to breathe
Don't know if this love is gonna last
Or I'm swimming in quicksand
Every kiss I fall little lower
Girl I wish that we could take it slow
I'm reaching out and eyes paralyze me
Oh what a way to go
I'm paddling and kicking my feet
With every touch it gets harder to breathe
Don't know if this love is gonna last
Or I'm swimming in quicksand
Everybody says I'm in way over my head
But Girl I'd rather be sinking into love with you
Than high and dry with somebody else
I'm paddling and kicking my feet
With every touch it gets harder to breathe
Don't know if this love is gonna last, it's gonna last
Or I'm swimming in quicksand
