George Daniel - Swim Against the Tide lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Hold me up high for a while You always said I'd learn to cry, and you were right And I wept through your hold of the night When you gave me something Then it feels like summer I keep on runnin' back [Pre-Chorus 1] Sit back and open wide Let me see you're dead inside It's so hard to swim against the tide I'm back trippin' over cracks in the road Won't you slow me down? [Chorus] Spirit grows when love goes away And I'm still thinking of a new way to say "I miss you" [Verse 2] It wasn't so hard to get You're a figure in the dark, a silhouette And you crept through the hole in my head You were the feet of the sun, and it seems so funny You keep on comin' back [Pre-Chorus 2] Hold tight and clench your fists 'Cause your eyes aren't filled with phantom kiss And just pray to your god that you missed Rise up, floating over loves That you've left [Chorus] Spirit grows when love goes away And I'm still thinking of a new way to say That I'm missing you [Instrumental Outro]
