From the recording This Much To Lose
Lyrics
Out Of My Depth
While the waves wash over me
Caught in a current
I drift on a wild wind to the foot of your bed
Swells like pitching seas of raw emotion
Carrying on since you've been gone
Learning to swim over my head
With a weight in my chest as I catch my breath
Out of my depth
At a stoplight sifting through radio static
A song that you liked on a 45 we played to death
And you'd make me life until I'd cry
Now I'm doing the opposite
Carrying on since you've been gone
Learning to swim in over my head
Decades to run with, flood gates wide open
Out of my depth
Learning to swim in over my head
Out of my depth
An excitable boy and a runaway girl from the suburbs
Just children in our wedding day photographs
And thick thieves long after we'd parted as lovers
I guess we needed each other
I still loved you, always wills
And it's been a long year
Treading troubled water
Red skies at dawn, ready or not
I'm learning to swim, swept off my feet again
Carrying on since you've been gone
Out of my depth
Learning to swim over my head
Carrying on since you've been gone
Learning to swim out of my depth
