[Verse 1]
There's a whole world inside your eyes
That I've never seen before
With tigers fading into white
And oceans when they pour
You blink your lids
And ask me why I'm smiling
But before I can reply
You're smiling too
In an ocean people live and people die
Looking in your eyes I know why
Kiss me on my collarbone
Send shivers down my spine
If the waters where you'll rest then so will I
[Chorus]
Leave my troubles where the tide breaks
And I'll do what I do
Simply waiting 'til the day wakes
I'm treading water here for you
In oceans
[Verse 2]
I want to be the best
And the only one you'll love
I remember every kiss
As if it was the first
The stirring waves beneath me
Make it harder just to breathe
And I'm falling in
[Chorus]
Leave my troubles where the tide breaks
And I'll do what I do
Simply waiting 'til the day wakes
I'm treading water here for you
In oceans (4x)
(Oceans)
[Verse 3]
I can't ask why 'cause I'll cry if I try
I'm no fun
You are the rising the setting the ever patient sun
(2x)
Leave my troubles where the tide breaks
And I'll do what I do
Simply waiting 'til the day wakes
I'm treading water here for you
In oceans (8x)
(Oceans)
