Lyrics

[intro]
barefoot on a rocky shore
along an ocean of scars
tears wash the soles of our feet
beneath the light of a million stars
it's these experiences that we share
that bind us in love

[chorus]
caught in the undertow
it won't let me go
finding it hard to breathe
but that's alright by me

[verse]
'cause she's
like a beacon high
shining down on me
and me
like a lonely sailor
drydocked lost at sea
and this irresistible drive
keeping you and me alive
feeling love love love

[chorus]
caught in the undertow
it won't let me go
finding it hard to breathe
but that's alright by me

[verse]
'cause she's
like an angel high
watching over me
and me
like a broken sinner
bent down on my knees
and this irresistible drive
keeping you and me alive
feeling love love love

[solo]

[bridge]
ahm--------
yeah we're floating
oh yeah we're floating

{kiss}
your lips scorches me
like a thousand degrees
yeah we're burning
oh yeah we're burning

{hearts}
our hearts beat as one
in a slow dance embrace
yeah we're yearning
oh yeah we're yearning

{call}
you call out my name
with one final breath
you say
ahhhhh

[chorus]
caught in the undertow
it won't let me go
finding it hard to breathe
but that's alright by me

[verse]
'cause she's
like the shining crown
reigning over me
and me
like the kneeling faithful
bowing on the streets
and this irresistible drive
keeping you and me alive
feeling love love love

[chorus] [ritarding]
caught in the undertow
it won't let me go
finding it hard to breathe
but that's alright by me

[outro]
barefoot on a rocky shore
along an ocean of scars
tears wash the soles of our feet
beneath the light of a million stars
it's these experiences that we share
that bind us in love
