Drowning
Backstreet Boys(后街男孩) Lyrics

Don't pretend you're sorry
I know that you are not really sorry for whatever you have done

I know you're not
I have a strong intuition that tells me that you are not actually sorry

You know you got the power
You know that you have the ability to control me

To make me weak inside
To make me feel vulnerable and powerless

And girl you leave me breathless
You have such a strong impact on me that I am left speechless and unable to breathe

But it's ok
Even though it is overwhelming, it is still okay with me

'Cause you are my survival
You are the one essential thing that I need to survive

Now hear me say
Listen to what I am about to say

I can't imagine life without your love
I cannot fathom living without your love

And even forever don't seem like long enough
Even though forever seems like a long time, it is still not enough time to be with you

'Cause every time I breathe I take you in
Every time I take in a breath, I am taking you in as well

And my heart beats again
You make my heart beat again and give me new life

Baby I can't help it
I cannot control how I feel about you

You keep me drowning in your love
Your love overwhelms me and I feel like I am drowning

And every time I try to rise above
Every time I try to pull away and rise above my feelings, I am pulled back in

I'm swept away by love
I am overwhelmed and consumed by my love for you

Maybe I'm a drifter
Perhaps I am a person who drifts from one thing to another without purpose

Maybe not
Perhaps that is not the case

'Cause I have known the safety
I have experienced the comfort and security of being with you

Of falling free into your arms
Of letting go and trusting you to catch me

I don't need another lifeline
I do not need anyone else to save me

It's not for me
That is not what I need or want

It's only you can save me
Only you have the power to save me

Oh, can't you see?
Don't you understand or see how I feel?

Go on pull me under
Continue to overwhelm me with your love

Cover me with dreams
Envelop me in fantasies and aspirations

You know I can't resist
You know that I am unable to resist your love

'Cause you're the air that I breathe!
You are the one and only thing that I need to survive

Baby drowning
I feel like I am drowning in my love for you

(Ohâ?¦)

Got me drowning
You have caused me to be overwhelmed with emotions and love

Keep me drowning in your love
Continue to make me feel overwhelmed and consumed by your love

(Can't help it, can't help it no no)
I cannot control my feelings and emotions towards you
