Trisha Yearwood - Nearest Distant Shore lyrics

You fight for every breath Caught without a ship in this sea of neglect The one you swore to love is pulling you down You're in over your head Chilled to the bone by the waters you've tread Chart a course to land, before you drown Swim to the nearest distant shore There's only so much a heart can endure You gave it your best, forgive yourself You can't hold on anymore It's not as far as it might seem Now it's time to let go of old dreams Every heart for itself Swim to the nearest distant shore He said for you he'd change Then he'd let you down and watch you take the blame You're trapped between his lies and the great unknown You vowed you would not fail But this ain't success it's a living hell There's nothing left to lose, you're already alone Swim to the nearest distant shore There's only so much a heart can endure You gave it your best, forgive yourself You can't hold on anymore It's not as far as it might seem Now it's time to let go of old dreams Every heart for itself Swim to the nearest distant shore
