lyrics

Surrounded by water but I cannot swim
Letting go now I’m falling in
As I sink down slowly my heart beats wild
I’ve had feelings for you since I was a child
So I close my eyes and I smile

Water dries up but I still feel cold
The sun is setting and I’m growing old
Every single moment is a gift with you
I have feelings for you oh so true
You’re my red when I’m blue

Feeling lonely on a river downstream
I’m a fish out of water and it hurts to breathe
When I’m in between
You’re right there in my dream

My feet feel dry now that I’m on the sand
Everything I said to you wasn’t planned
If I knew tomorrow that you’d be gone
I would change the words of this song
You’re my right when I’m wrong

Feeling lonely on a river downstream
I’m a fish out of water and it hurts to breathe
When I’m in between
You’re right there in my dream

The April Maze Australia

"Mayhew’s masterful guitar, Agam’s visceral, growling cello and her own dark twisted vocal…mean much of this is a series of inky-black fairy tales." 4/5 STARS. MOJO Magazine
