I called in sick to the bathtub today
Somebody pulled the plug on me
So I'll gather up my skirts to the sink
Made a bubble bath until (?)

You held me like a tundra
Shifting blocks of ice, pulling asunder
Come a little closer, you're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out

I used to watch the weather channel twice a week
(?) calculations of the water levels rising
But since my bay's been emptied I can't bear to look at it
Disaster is as disaster does, and it doesn't like forecasting

Oh you held me like a tundra
Shifting blocks of ice, pulling asunder
Come a little closer, you're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out

You didn't have to tell me or even say her name
The evidence was plainly written by the expression on your face
It ain't intuition, it ain't ESP
I could even tell while you were making love to me

Oh you held me like a tundra
Drifting blocks of ice, pulling asunder
Come a little closer, you're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out

The water gets deeper the further we drift out
And it's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, 'cause I knew it all along

Baby, you held me like a tundra
Pulling us sideways, dragging me under
Come a little closer, you're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out
The water gets deeper the further we drift out
The water gets deeper, and soon enough we'll drown
