Verse:
Back then we’d swim
In the water
All summer you were by my side
I thought you’d always be my friend
Not seeing our differences
Just blind to who was ahead
Or behind me
Pre-Chorus:
But now it’s like
Oh I don’t remember you
I got things to do
Moving on, looking strong
Is better than what you came from
Chorus:
And we said we’d win together
All boats rise with the tide
Chasing faster richer smarter
Left so many behind
If we’re drowning underwater
And the oceans will rise
In a waterworld will you save me,
Look in my eyes
In a waterworld nothing matters
But you and I
Verse:
Just a drop can poison the water
If you thirst for fame,
Power, money, and lies
You gained the world do you feel alone
I felt your pain, and are we close?
We float this tiny marble in the cosmos
Pre-Chorus:
You climb mountains high
Fly the sun,
You went blind
Rivers pull you back to me
Floating back home on our old street
Chorus:
And we said we’d win together
All boats rise with the tide
Chasing faster richer smarter
Left so many behind
If we’re drowning underwater
And the oceans will rise
In a waterworld will you save me,
Look in my eyes
In a waterworld nothing matters
But you and I
Bridge:
Waterworld
Skip a stone and we hope to survive
Waterworld
Chorus:
And we said we’d win together
All boats rise with the tide
Chasing faster richer smarter
Left so many behind
If we’re drowning underwater
And the oceans will rise
In a waterworld will you save me,
Look in my eyes
In a waterworld nothing matters
But you and I
