Sinking
Surrendering to Depths: Sleepy Gonzales' Sinking Lyrics Unveiled
Lyrics
Coulda sworn that we were sinking
Feeling certain that a situation of sinking or distress was being experienced
On a refugee bamboo raft

Coulda sworn
Had a strong belief or conviction
That we
Refers to 'we,' indicating a shared experience
Were

Sinking
Reiteration of the sinking feeling
On a luxury catamaran
Contrastingly perceives sinking while on a luxurious and stable catamaran
And I'm trying to keep you calm
Attempting to maintain calmness or tranquility in the situation

Expressing difficulty in movement or action
Move my
Specifically, the struggle to move the arms

Coulda sworn that we were sinking

Coulda sworn
Reiteration of the strong belief or conviction
That we
Reference to the collective experience of sinking
Were
Emphasis on the state of being
Sinking
Reiteration of the feeling of sinking
We were little kids again
Recalling a time of innocence or youth
Then I woke
Awoke from a situation or dream-like state
To find
Discovered or realized
That you'd spilled a glass of water in the bed
An incident of spilling water in the bed, potentially disrupting the comfort or peace
And we shared a little laugh
Shared a moment of amusement despite the mishap
About how you nearly drowned us both
Jovially acknowledging the risk or danger caused by the spilled water
Both
Reiteration for emphasis on both individuals involved
I was happier 30,000 fathoms deep
A metaphorical expression of finding contentment or happiness in deep, profound depths
I was happier
A state of joy or contentment experienced previously
When I was buried under sea
Recollection of being satisfied or happier while submerged under the sea
I was happier
A repeated assertion of experiencing happiness at great depths
30, 000 Fathoms deep
Reiterating contentment at a significant depth
I was happier
Reiteration of a sense of happiness or satisfaction experienced deeply
In the belly of the sea
Continued expression of happiness found within the depths of the sea
I was happier
A reaffirmation of finding happiness or contentment in a submerged state
