I swim the lake for I have lost my shoes,
I'm holding on, I'm still awaiting you,
They cling to me but I remain composed,
I'll take the blame, grow you a thornless rose,
I swim the lake for I have lost my shoes,
I'm holding on, I'm still awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you

I swallow deep but the distance grows,
Our baby breathes against the undertow,
She clings to me but I remain composed,
The moon is full, but the darkness knows,
I swim the lake for I have lost my shoes,
I'm holding on, I'm still awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you

I swim the lake for I have lost my shoes,
I'm holding on, I'm still awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
Awaiting you,
