I Can't Swim Lyrics

She was naked
She was waiting by the seaside
She was crying
She was feeling up the ocean for me
Because she knows I can't swim
I was sobbing and a-wailing on the hour
C'mon darling
C'mon c'mon c'mon
You know I know I can't swim

I need air
Just some oxygen, I think it's only fair
A reprieve, oh pardon, please
I read my sentence and it seems a tad extreme

She's complaining all night
With a warm, salty sneeze
The coastline stretches for days
Now it's all I see

I play the fool,I play dumb
I kept the flow of denials
Can't believe I let my excuses up to no fire
Each one a dead albatross and a one-way ticket to Devil's Isle

It's five fourteen in the morning
It's bad, bad, bad as you go
I played with the sun to called on the dawn:
Where you hiding?
Where you hiding?
She was coated and devoted to the shoreline
She was young, beautiful and the skin was on fire

I never learned
So I'm not sure what songs misology will lure
A wayward glance will make me land
I've been convicted and most certainly condemned

Drift each nautical mile
Under a blistering heat
Is this heaven or hell?
Or in between?

I play the fool,I play dumb
I kept the flow of denials
Can't believe I let my excuses up to no fire
Each one a dead albatross and a one-way ticket to Devil's Isle
It's five fourteen in the morning
It's bad, bad, bad as you go
I played with the sun to called on the dawn:
Where you hiding?
Where you hiding?

Don't take my heart
Cuz it's a ?? to the storm
and without it I would float
on my days and nights
I'd rather sink to the floor than continue with this pyre

So don't take my heart
Cuz it's a ?? to the storm
and without it I would float
on my days and nights

She was naked
She was waiting by the seaside
She was crying
