Swimming Lyrics - Florence And The Machine

Your songs remind me of swimming 

Which I forgot when I started to sink 

Dragged further away from the shore 

And deeper into the drink. 

Sat on the bottom of the ocean 

A stern and stubborn rock 

Cause your songs remind me of swimming 

But somehow I forgot. 

I was sinking and now I'm sunk 

I was drinking and now I'm drunk 

Your songs remind me of swimming 

But somehow I forgot. 

I tried to remember the chorus 

I can't remember the verse 

Cause that song that sent me swimming 

Is now the life jacket that burst. 

Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor 

Sinking like a siren that can't swim anymore 

Cause your songs remind me of swimming 

But I can't swim anymore. 

Pull me out the water, cold and blue 

I open my eyes and see that it's you 

So I dive straight back in the ocean 

So I dive straight back in the ocean. 

Take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest 

Take a deep breath, suck the water in my chest 

Cross my fingers and hope for the best 

Then all of a sudden, I heard a note 

It started in my chest and ended in my throat 

Then I realized, then I realized 

Then I realized I was swimming 

Yes I was swimming 

And now I'm swimming 

Yes I am swimming. 

Your songs remind me of swimming 

Which I forgot when I started to sink 

Your songs remind me of swimming 

Which I forgot when I started to sink 

Oh, your songs remind me of swimming 

Which I forgot when I started 

Your songs remind me of swimming 

Which I forgot when I started 

To sink.
