Treading Water
Love's Second Chance: Treading Water with Alex Clare
Lyrics
My heart just sank the moment I, saw you,
Expresses a sinking feeling upon seeing someone.
You're the image of a girl, that I used to know.
Compares the person to someone from the past.
Don't be alarmed if it seems hard, for me to explain,
Anticipates difficulty in explaining emotions.
But every detail of your face, makes me recall the name.
Every facial detail triggers memories of a name.
Hmm I'm treading water,
Expresses a sense of stagnation or lack of progress.
I keep, treading water!
Reiterates the feeling of being stuck or not moving forward.
Maybe it's another chance,
Contemplates the possibility of repeating past mistakes.
To mug myself again!
-Maybe it's another chance,
-I'm sure I'll mess things up in the same way
-Maybe it's another chance,
-To mug myself again
-Can you forgive the things I do,
Asks for forgiveness for actions that cannot be undone.
That I can't amend?
Expresses regret for things that cannot be changed.
Not the way I yearn for her,
Acknowledges a yearning for someone else.
I hope you can't pretend
-Girl you're a fire and you'll find,
Describes the attraction to risk and potential consequences.
That I want to get burnt,
-No matter what you can teach me,
-I'm sure I'll never learn.
-Hmmm treading water,
Repeats the feeling of being stuck or not progressing.
I keep, treading water
-Maybe it's another chance,
Repeats the contemplation of repeating past mistakes.
To mug myself again
-Maybe it's another chance,
-I'm sure I'll mess things up in the same way
-Maybe it's another chance,
-To mug myself again
-It's my concentration,
Admits distraction and apologizes, attributing it to someone else.
Seems spread too thin,
-And when you speak, my eyes glaze over
-I'm sorry girl, it's not you it's her
-And you're another chance,
Acknowledges the potential for repeating mistakes with the current person.
To mug myself again
-Baby you're another chance,
-I'm sure I'll mess things up in the same way
-Baby it's another chance
-Baby it's another chance
-To mug myself again,
-Baby you're another chance,
-I'm sure I'll mess things up in the same way.
-Baby It's another chance,
Reiterates the contemplation of repeating past mistakes.
To mug myself again.
