Verse:
As I held your hand and closed my eyes
Your fog halo made me realize
Despite its sugar-coated guise
Our love will eventually die
Chorus:
Drowning
Drowning
Whenever I want to kiss you, I drown
Whenever you want to kiss me, you choke
Our love is suffocation
This love is a sad, sad joke
A big, grand yoke
Verse:
Karate chops won't mend a broken heart
But I always knew it from the start
The land and the sea are too far apart
So how do I pull out Cupid's dart?
Verse:
Isn't it a lovely night?
Wish I were a dolphin, a sea turtle, a sprite
Your perfect air-breathing knight
But when my head is dry my lungs grow tight
Bridge:
Acting natural in your glass dome
But when my hands want to roam
I realize that I can never
I can never
I can never
Doomed to handshakes and hugs forever
Verse:
My melancholy yellow heart will survive
I know you will never be my bride
I was a damsel, but at least I was alive
Please find me again on your next dive
