From the Undertow

She said a lot of it drunk
But I knew she was right
About wanting to stop
The stupid things that we fight about

Now I'm putting in a box
All the ways that I thought
I was making it out alright
Would you let them kill your love if it were enough
To sell him down the river tonight

Can you go
Into the water
Can you breathe
When it's a bother
Can you float
Your love to the boat
From the undertow

I couldn't catch my breath
Like losing a child
At the river's edge
Trusting all the while

Sitting on my lap In the wake of the gap
Is never knowing why
Only Finding out it was paramount
To sell him down the river tonight

Can you go
Into the water
Can you breathe
When it's a bother
Can you float
Your love to the boat
From the undertow

Wading through the reeds
By the crocodiles
Showing off their teeth
Grinning that knowing smile
I'm hoping the doubt is wrong
I'm hoping their talk is wrong
I've been praying all along

Can you go
Into the water
Can you breathe
When it's a bother
Can you float
Your love to the boat
From the undertow

From the undertow
From the undertow
