Wade In The Water

[Intro] [Verse 1] Hey baby, baby don't you think we're lucky that we had it good for so long We hit the jackpot, edge we got from where we come from Poplar trees swaying in the wind, dead quiet 'cept the single engine of a passing headlight Do you remember what that life was like? And now your dad project a slideshow on Christmas night My heart sunk on weekends with the rain outside Because the cricket's called off, we could've got outright Right? Right, day to day is cruisy on the mountainside And bushfires used to only come in summertime Apart from that it's fine, life's so easy otherwise Sleepy streets mostly all free of crime Kind of place to raise a daughter We can reconcile our fortune in the natural order But what's around the corner? I know for sure that if you're ever dragged into the deep I'll wade into the water [Chorus: Jane Tyrell] I'll be staying by your side I will be staying by your side Whatever we're facing I won't run Wherever we're drifting from I'm staying by your side [Pre-Verse] But suddenly you're standing there in front of me, I'm crushing hard And part of me is too excited Dive into a love affair, right into each other's arms Neither of us frightened Not a single person on the planet could've swapped, nah Yeah that feeling when you think you're gonna be with someone till you drop Till you drop, till you drop, till you drop [Verse 2] We had been together since forever when the tipping point came Dam broke, that's when everything changed We had been through thick and thin but bigger things lurked Have you ever envisioned your city in flames? No, neither of us think about when we were of a certain type Of people that just never thought they were in range Well, we raised a kid to think the same The fighting that was taking place well that was always somewhere far away Channel 24 got it, run it round the clock, got it Switch channel, get on Twitter, read it, retweet it Look out your front door, streets are at war streets Streets to the mall and an army being called Is the city gonna fall while they tell us stay calm? With another close call, why are children being armed? As we join other people tryna flee to the border Promise if you're at sea then I'll wade in the water [Chorus: Jane Tyrell] I'll be staying by your side I will be staying by your side Whatever we're facing I won't run Wherever we're drifting from I'm staying by your side [Outro]
