"Undertow" lyrics

If you treat me like a memory
There's a chance that I will fade
If you let me in completely
Then I'll never slip away

Oh, don't you know it's true
That I'm not good for you
Cause one day I'll fall
Who will remember?
When I do fall
What will I leave behind?

If you stay with me
I'll show you what I hide below
But keep your distance
Or you'll fall into the undertow
Oh, oh
Oh, undertow
Oh, oh
Oh please, don't go

There's a current
Pulsing through our hearts
Makes the hair stand on our skin
And it hurts to be so far apart
But I know that we can't win

Oh, don't you know it's true
That I'm not good for you
Cause one day I'll fall
Who will remember?
When I do fall
What will I leave behind?

If you stay with me
I'll show you what I hide below
But keep your distance
Or you'll fall into the undertow
Oh, oh
Oh, undertow
Oh, oh
Oh please, don't go
Oh, oh
Oh, undertow
I know you have to go

So darling, treat me like a memory
And let me slip away
For the pain you'll feel
In keeping me
No, that will never fade

If you stay with me
I'll show you what I hide below
But keep your distance
Or you'll fall into the undertow
Oh, oh
Oh, undertow
Oh, oh
Oh please, don't go
Oh, oh
Oh, undertow
I know you have to go
