[Verse 1] Here I'll stay, waiting for the tide to turn And sail away, all these breaking waves of hurt I'll try to leave behind this savage world Maybe someday I'll return Patiently, you wait for me on the shore Thinking time is all I need to give you more But guarantees, I can't give you no 'Cause I'm a shipwreck sinking slowly
[Pre-Chorus] And promises they break And I'm through making mistakes Well, love's done nothing but cut me up And carry me away
[Chorus] So now I hide my heart It's buried somewhere deep in the bottom of the ocean 'Cause I've been torn apart And what I thought was love nearly left me broken So now I hide my heart Far beneath the waves at the bottom of the ocean If only I could get to you What's swimming beneath the blue of this ocean
[Pre-Chorus] And promises they break And I'm through making mistakes Well, love's done nothing but cut me up And carry me away
[Chorus] So now I hide my heart It's buried somewhere deep in the bottom of the ocean 'Cause I've been torn apart And what I thought was love nearly left me broken So now I hide my heart Far beneath the waves at the bottom of the ocean If only I could get to you What's swimming beneath the blue of this ocean
