Storm
♥◡♥Lifehouse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So overwhelmed by the ocean's shapeless form
Water's getting harder to tread
With these waves crashing over my head
If I could just see you
Everything would be all right
If I'd see you
And I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
I know everything will be alright
I know everything is alright
I know you didn't bring me out here to drown
So why am I ten feet under and upside down?
Barely surviving has become my purpose
Because I'm so used to living underneath the surface
If I could just see you
Everything would be all right
If I'd see you
This darkness would turn to light
And I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
I know everything will be alright
And I will walk on water
And you will catch me if I fall
And I will get lost into your eyes
I know everything will be all right
I know everything is all right
Everything's all right
Yeah, everything's all right

When you live close to the coast this is something you can expect! I live 900 miles due west of the east coast so I'm good!😊🎉❤
@RiseUpAC
I live 900 feet from the east coast and we will be ok. Besides, it's going to be a bust like it usually is when reports like this are posted.
