Drowning

There are times in peoples lives
When they’re adrift and they capsize
And as the water throws them under
The chaos makes ‘em wonder
How they’ll gasp in their next breath
Staring in the eyes of death
A hand breaks down through that ocean
Ignoring the commotion
You focus on the prize
And you help me realize
That as you grip with all your might
And you pull me to the light
You coax me now to breathe
And you beg me not to leave
You fill my lungs up with your air
I can’t believe you’re there
I can’t believe you’re there
And I smile.
I put my hand on your face
And somehow I smile wider
I’m in love with a girl
With sapphire eyes
And I don’t ever want to stop
Drowning in them
