"As The Ocean" lyrics

Can you swim? Well, I hope you can
'Cause the water's deep, and no one can come and save you
We're doomed from the start
I hate to break it to ya, everybody grows apart

And while my heart's been broken
I hope to keep it open, and let it run deep as the ocean
Let it stretch wide as the sky
It's always been me myself and I
While you just stand back and watch me cry
While you just stand back and watch me cry

You don't love me like a fragile thing
Baby, I'm a fragile thing
I be breaking easy, you never take it easy on me
You never wanna believe me when I say
"My back hurt, my heart ache, my bra too tight"
While I toss and I turn, you sleeping good at night
And I
I just need a little time to get it right

'Cause while my heart's been broken
I hope to keep it open, and let it run deep as the ocean
Let it stretch wide as the sky
It's always been me myself and I
While you just stand back and watch me cry
While you just stand back and watch me cry

And watch me cry
