Sink or Swim
Navigating Love's Turbulent Seas
Lyrics
I know some ships well they get stuck
Some endeavors face obstacles or become trapped.
Buried treasures without secrets
Valuable things hidden or forgotten.
As the years count up
With time passing.
I wonder where the lifeboat is
Questioning the availability of a rescue.
Carried away far from the life
Separated from a shared life or journey.
We built together it felt so right
Creating something wonderful together.
As the ship goes under
As things come to an end.
I wonder if we'll sink or swim
Uncertainty about success or failure in a challenging situation.
I don't want to let go
Reluctance to release or move on.
I got caught in the waves
Caught up in difficulties.
Confined to the undertow
Feeling trapped or constrained.
So much left that we need to say
Unspoken thoughts or feelings that need expression.
I know some mountains weren't meant to climb
Recognizing insurmountable challenges.
When you asked I said "I'm fine"
Hiding true feelings when asked.
If you look real close
The reality is concealed beneath the surface.
The truth is behind these eyes
Escaping to unexplored territories.
We'll fly away to distant shores
A promise of discovery beyond imagination.
I'll show you places never seen before
A chance to experience new things together.
If we ride this wave
Hope for a positive outcome despite uncertainties.
Tomorrow is a new surprise
Anticipation of a surprising future.
Is this life we wanted?
Questioning the alignment of current life with desires.
I feel like it got away
Feeling disconnected from what once brought joy.
From all that we fell in love with
Loss of connection to the initial attraction.
Tomorrow's a brand new day
Optimism for a fresh start in the future.
I don't want to let go
Unwillingness to move on or detach.
I don't want to let go
Resisting the idea of moving forward.
I got caught in the waves
Caught up again in challenging circumstances.
Confined to the undertow
Feeling trapped once more.
So much left that we need to say
Unsaid things that need expression.
I know some ships well they get stuck
Reiteration of the metaphor of being stuck.
Buried treasure without secrets
Repeated idea of valuable things hidden without disclosure.
As the years count up
Reflecting on the passage of time.
I wonder if we'll sink or swim
Continued uncertainty about success or failure.
