I left my heart on the ocean floor
I lost my heart to you
How could I repay you
Cold and drowning at the bottom of the sea
I had nothing left for me
But I knew you could save me and you did
So hold me until the tide is low
And hold me until the sun has shown
The sun has shown
I need you as the waves come near
Without you I'd just disappear
I'd disappear
I once was told life would flash before my eyes And now I know they couldn't be more right
You know I'd speak but my tears would block my cry
The water's cold and it's rising quick
I never learned I never win
And now I'm falling with no return
So hold me until the tide is low
And hold me until the sun has shown
The sun has shown
I need you as the waves come near
Without you I'd just disappear
Oh I'd disappear
I've waited my whole life for you
And now that I've got you I've ruined it once again
Now once again I need you so
And I'm trying hard to keep afloat
'Cause I know
I know I'll be coming home
So hold me 'til the tide is low
And hold me until the sun has shown
The sun has shown
I need you as the waves come near
Without you I'd just disappear
Oh I'd disappear
