"Swimming Backwards" lyrics

"Swimming Backwards"

Take me home 'cross the water
'Cause I can't swim on my own
Wrap my wounds in your plaster
This love that I've never known

So take me, take me, take me there
I guess I feel tired and I'm so scared
What the future holds
I wanna be a part of you
All I want is you
All I want is you

Hold you close in the morning
Feel a kick that's not there
And shout out to happy ever after
Find out if we'll ever be three
I'm down but I'm only swimming backwards

All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is you

So take me, take me, take me there
I guess I feel tired and I'm so scared
What the future holds
I wanna be a part of you

Take me, take me, take me there
I guess I feel tired and I'm so scared
What the future holds
I wanna be a part of you
All I want is you
All I want is you

All I want is you
Take me, take me, take me there
All I want is you
Take me, take me, take me there
All I want is you
Take me, take me, take me there
I'm down but I'm only swimming backwards
All I want is you
Take me, take me, take me there
I'm down but I'm only swimming backwards
All I want is you
Take me, take me, take me there
I'm down but I'm only swimming backwards
