So they say There are other fishes in the sea But the only one that's missing Is the one that swims for me And so you say "Oh dear just wait patiently Love will come along, eventually." So I tried to swim against the current To live my life and let me be So don't cast me a line 'cause I've run out of time To live a lie I can't deny You've hooked me so deep again With your smart and witty lines You have soiled my disguise And then the waves Oh the waves they come crashing down When I see the look in your eyes When you're watching her walk by "If you're looking to fit in then join the rest 'Cause you know you'll only end up second best" They said If you want to swim along the current Then act and speak the way we do You may be untrue But if you'd rather be us Then why be you What a beautiful lie, to live So I've learned to swim against the current To live my life and now I'm free Because honestly There's no one else I'd rather be So watch me leave
