I come up for air 
 But I still can't breathe 
 And I still can't see 
 My hands in front of me 
 And I'd tell you if I dare 
 That I don't feel free 
 And I just can't be living a life that you cut out for me 
    I look up to the sky, with salt in my eyes 
 And a pain in my chest 
 Holding me down as I'm washing away what you said 
 But I won't be holding my breath   
 Your love comes in waves 
 Don't you ever wonder what it feels like? 
 Under water feeling low 
 Until you see white 
 Never knowing if we're drifting away 
 Your love comes in waves 
 I toss and I turn and I fall and I rise 
 It's sink or it's swim 
 Getting caught up in your riptide   
 And it's rising in the air 
 The tension speaks 
 My reflection sees 
 All that I had tried not to believe   
 I look up to the sky, with tears in my eyes 
 And a pain in my chest 
 Beating the life from the only good thing I had left 
 But I won't be holding my breath   
 Your love comes in waves 
 Don't you ever wonder what it feels like? 
 Under water feeling low 
 Until you see white 
 Never knowing if we're drifting away 
 Your love comes in waves 
 I toss and I turn and I fall and I rise 
 It's sink or it's swim 
 Getting caught up in your riptide   
 Getting caught up in your riptide 
 Feeling low until you see white 
 Getting caught up in your riptide   
 Your love comes in waves 
 Don't you ever wonder what it feels like? 
 Under water feeling low 
 Until you see white 
 Never knowing if we're drifting away 
 Your love comes in waves 
 I toss and I turn and I fall and I rise 
 It's sink or it's swim 
 Getting caught up in your riptide
