florence + the machine - swimming - live from hammersmith apollo / 2010 lyrics
[verse 1]
your songs remind me of swimming
which i forgot when i started to sink
dragged further away from the shore
and deeper into the drink
[verse 2]
sat on the bottom of the ocean
a stern and stubborn rock
your songs remind me of swimming
but somehow i forgot
[verse 3]
i was sinking, and now i’m sunk
i was drinking, and now i’m drunk
your songs remind me of swimming
but somehow i forgot
[verse 4]
i tried to remember the chorus
i can’t remember the verse
’cause that song that sent me a’ swimming
is now the life jacket that burst
[verse 5]
rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor
sinkin’ like a sirеn that can’t swim any more
your songs remind me of swimming
but i can’t swim anymorе
[chorus]
pull me out the water, cold and blue
i open my eyes and see that it’s you
so i’ll dive straight back in the ocean
yes i’ll dive straight back in the ocean
[post+chorus]
take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest
take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest
then cross my fingers
and hope for the best
[verse 6]
then all of a sudden, i heard a note
it started in my chest, and ended in my throat, oh
then i realised
then i realised
then i realised
[bridge]
i was swimming
yes, i was swimming
and now i’m swimming
yes, i am swimming
[outro]
your songs remind me of swimming
which i forgot when i started to sink
your songs remind me of swimming
which i forgot when i started to sink
oh, your songs remind me of swimming
which i forgot when i started
your songs remind me of swimming
which i forgot when i started
to sink
