[Intro]
Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
[Verse 1]
You can't say that I'm going nowhere
'Cause you don't know where I'm coming from
And you can't say that I'm going nowhere
When I have been trying to reach you for so long
[Interlude]
(Your drums, we're drumming, your drums)
[Verse 2]
Friends say I've got something wrong
'Cause I've been trying to reach you for so long
For so long, I've tried
To reach you, baby, don't you know that
[Chorus]
I've been treading water for your love
Whether I sink or swim, it's you I'm thinking of
I've been treading water for your love
As my light grows dim maybe I'm not strong enough, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
[Verse 3]
I can't say why I'm going nowhere
This feeling goes on and on
I can't say that I'm going somewhere
When I've been failing to reach you for so long
For so long, I've tried
To reach you, baby, don't you know that
[Chorus]
I've been treading water for your love
Whether I sink or swim, it's you I'm thinking of
I've been treading water for your love
As my light grows dim maybe I'm not strong enough, oh
[Bridge]
Maybe all along (All along)
I've been holding on (Holding on)
To the promise that you need some time
Making everything into a story
Making sure I never get to feel happy
Taking everything you do my own way
Thinking that you're begging me, please
[Chorus]
I've been treading water for your love
Whether I sink or swim, it's you I'm thinking of
I've been treading water for your love
As my light grows dim maybe I'm not strong enough, oh
[Outro]
Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
