[Verse 1]

Sometimes you're an ocean

Sometimes you're the sea

Sometimes just a raindrop on the street

Sometimes you're a river wide

You're a waterfall

Sometimes you're the deepest lake

And I can't swim across


[Chorus]

And sometimes it hits me in waves

Sometimes I get swept away

Sometimes it hits me in waves and I'm drowning


[Verse 2]

'Cause sometimes you just disappear

Sometimes you're pouring down

Sometimes you are quiet in the clouds

But sometimes you are raging

Sometimes you are the storm

Sometimes you envelop me

Sometimes you keep me warm


[Chorus]

And sometimes it hits me in waves

Sometimes I get swept away

Sometimes it hits me in waves and I'm drowning


[Bridge]

'Cause sometimes you are cold

You are ice and you are snow

I feel you in my bones again

Sometimes you haven't flown away then


[Chorus 2]

Sometimes it hits me in waves

And sometimes it takes my breath away

Sometimes it hits me in waves

Sometimes I get swept away

Sometimes it hits me in waves and I'm drowning

Sometimes it hits me and I'm drowning


[Outro]

Sometimes you're the ocean

Sometimes you're the sea

Sometimes you're so close

That I can't breathe
