Waving Not Drowning

Take that face right off yours

It’s not yours love It’s not yours love

You keep yours in a secret cup

It’s flowing over It’s flowing over

And I gave all that I gave you

I gave all that I dared

And I took it that I’d claim you

And I took it that you’d care

But you love you more than I do

And I’d love you to be right

And the wave may crash around you

And Shipwreck you at night

I’m waving not drowning there’s no one looking on

I’m waving not drowning on the horizon

Raise an arm we won the race

I’m in your slipstream call it survival

You wrote the words for me on every wall

I thank the world for you we’re alive-o

We made it running empty and we drove away our fears

And we drank the life glass empty but nothing dissapears

And we swam a changing ocean

Our friends upon the shore

And we threw so many over

And watched some others fall

I’m waving not drowning there’s no one looking on

I’m waving not drowning on the horizon
