Keep me under the water completely
I never wanna learn to swim
When you're the one holding me down
Drown me deep in the rivers of the valley
Letting my lungs succumb to sweet seductive sounds

I ain't never been this deep before
And the more I sank, Lord, the more I swore
From the waterline to the ocean floor
Drowning's just a lover's chore

Sink me into every single secret you're keeping
When your heart can't go no longer
I'll be there to carry us on
There God goes turning creeks in the rivers out of white snow
As you grin out the window, into our front yard

I ain't never been this deep before
And the more I sank, Lord, the more I swore
From the waterline to the ocean floor
I say drowning's just a lover's chore
Yeah, I say drowning's just a lover's chore

Keep me under the water completely
Never wanna learn to swim when, you're the one holding me down
