The Drowning Man (The Cure Cover)
Don't pretend you're sorry
I know you're not
You know you got the power
To make me weak inside
Girl, you leave me breathless
But it's okay
'Cause you are my survival
Now hear me say
I can't imagine life without your love
Even forever don't seem like long enough
'Cause everytime I breathe I take you in
And my heart beats again
Baby, I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
Everytime I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love
Baby, I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
Maybe I'm a drifter
Maybe not
'Cause I long for the safety
Of flowing freely in your arms
I don't need another lifeline
It's not for me
'Cause only you can save me
Oh, can't you see?
I can't imagine life without your love
And even forever don't seem like long enough
(don't seem like long enough, girl)
'Cause everytime I breathe I take you in
And my heart beats again
Baby I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
And everytime I try to rise above
I'm swept away by your love
Baby I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
Go on and pull me under
Cover me with dreams, yeah
Love me mouth to mouth now
You know I can't resist
'Cause you're the air that I breathe
Everytime I breathe I take you in
(everytime I breathe, yeah)
And my heart beats again
Baby, I can't help it
(baby, I can't help it)
You keep me drowning in your love
And everytime I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love
Baby, I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
Baby, I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
You got me drowning
You keep me drowning in your love
Baby I can't help it
(I can't help it, can't help it, no no)
Everytime I breathe I take you in
(yeah I do)
And my heart beats again
Baby I can't help it
(baby I can't help it)
You keep me drowning in your love
And everytime I try to rise above
(everytime I try to rise, rise above)
I'm swept away by love
Baby I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
I know you're not
You know you got the power
To make me weak inside
Girl, you leave me breathless
But it's okay
'Cause you are my survival
Now hear me say
I can't imagine life without your love
Even forever don't seem like long enough
'Cause everytime I breathe I take you in
And my heart beats again
Baby, I can't help it

Everytime I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love
Baby, I can't help it
