Breathing Underwater

From the walls of the oceans
To the thoughts of the angels
From the desperate to riches
The life inside the cells
From the smile that deceives you
To the arms you can lean on
From the faith that grounds you
To the world beyond the known

Oh, breathing underwater
Walking through the skies
And your love in my day
Oh, stranger things have happened
And one day you will see
Your love will come my way

A night shot of the city
With the car lights streaming
Like life wide open
All you want to do
Blacklisted hopefuls
With the courage of a lion
Knocked down, not out
And we're on our feet ready to go

Oh, breathing underwater
Looking toward the skies
At your love in my day
Oh, stranger things have happened
And one day you will see
Your love will come my way

An image blurred into a photograph
From a thousand years ahead
From a time we should be gone
Like a message back from time
That we will surely carry on

Like birds of a feather
In a V formation
You dreamed you were flying
And believed it to be true
Outside of your fortress
Slipping into your castle
By the light of the night sky
And the will driving me on

Oh, breathing underwater
Walking through the skies
And your love in my day
Oh, stranger things have happened
And one day you will see
Your love will come my way
Oh, breathing underwater
Looking toward the skies
At your love in my day
Oh, stranger things have happened
And one day you will see
Your love will come my way
