if the ocean were to take you
i'd jump in after you
i’m a pretty decent swimmer
yet not one that can save
the waves are stronger than my will
but i’d tread ice cold water
to hold you close once more
the tides can pull us under
the current can drag us out
the seaweed can wrap us closer
i'd have neither fear nor doubt
i'm sure we'd find Atlantis
or possibly grow some gills
i'm sure love under water
is an even bigger thrill
