[Verse 1]

The rain always ends up back in the river again

Oh innocence is sometimes thrown into the lions den

But I've made it this far as I lay in your arms

Lost as an island, a casualty of silence

It's killing me


[Chorus]

I don't mean to be a bother but I was pondering if you'd cross an ocean for me

‘cause I just really need to know If this is love or are we simply sharing air to breathe

(ohohoh uhuhuhuh)

When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up

When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up


[Verse 2]

I fall asleep to lullabies built of thunder

Peace settles in but then my mind plays the hunter

Thoughts pile up till their mountain tops

Pulling me along till I'm a little lost

It's killing me


[Chorus]

I don’t mean to be a bother but I was pondering If you’d cross an ocean for me

‘cause I just really need to know If this is love or are we simply sharing air to breathe

(ohohoh uhuhuhuh)

When the waves get rough will you be here

When I wake up

When the waves get rough will you be here

When I wake up


[Verse 3]

Here I stand in front of you

It’s little overdue but

Asking for a simple truth

Here i stand in front of you

It’s little overdue

Asking for a simple truth


[Chorus]

I don’t mean to be a bother but I was pondering if you’d cross an ocean for me

‘cause I just really need to know if this is love or are we simply sharing air to breathe

(ohohoh uhuhuhuh)

When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up

When the waves get rough will you be here when I wake up
