Lyrics:
I want to swim in your current
Carry me out, up and away
I want to float
On every word you say
Want to be underneath your weather
Every cloud and ray of sun
I want to float
In between everyone
In between everyone
I want to sink down like a stone
You never lost me, you never broke
I want to be adrift on your radio
Oh take me under, take me home
The undertow
I want to be, all of a sudden
Every wave and undertow
I want to float
Everywhere I go
Everywhere I go
Everywhere I go
Everywhere I go
I want to sink down like a stone
You never lost me, you never broke
I want to be adrift on your radio
Oh take me under, take me home
The undertow
I want to sink down like a stone
(The undertow)
You never lost me, you never broke
(The undertow)
I want to be adrift on your radio
(The undertow)
Oh take me under, take me home
(The undertow)
I want to sink down like a stone
(I wanna swim in, swim in, the undertow)
You never lost me, you never broke
(I wanna swim in, swim in, the undertow)
I want to be adrift on your radio
(I wanna swim in, swim in, the undertow)
Oh take me under, take me home
(I wanna swim in, swim in, the undertow)
I want to sink down like a stone
(I wanna swim in, swim in, the undertow)
You never lost me, you never broke
(I wanna swim in, swim in, the undertow)
I want to be adrift on your radio
(I wanna swim in, swim in, the undertow)
Oh take me under, take me home
(I wanna swim in, swim in, the undertow)
The undertow
