Drowning
Frontliner & B-Front Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I've been down two times
But right now I'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
I've been out here so very long
I done lost all my direction
Baby, when you came my way
But a strong wind came into my life
It surely took me by surprise
I can't seem to control these tears
That's falling from my eyes
I've been down one time
And I've been down two times
But right now I'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love
Baby, I depended on you
For the love navigation
But now you've gone and deserted me
Can't you see that I'm in desperation
I'm in the middle of a bad love storm
And it's bad as it can be
I look around, all I can see
Is water coming down over me
I've been down one time
And I've been down two times
But right now I'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love, sea of love
I've been down one time
And I've been down two times
But right now I'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love
But right now I'm just drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
A sea of love, sea of love

I've been down one time
I've faced difficult times before
And I've been down two times
I've faced difficult times twice
But right now I'm drowning
But at this moment, I feel overwhelmed by a situation
Drowning in the sea of love
I'm overwhelmed by the intensity of my emotions and feelings of love
I've been out here so very long
I've been struggling for a long time
I done lost all my direction
I've lost my way in life
Baby, when you came my way
When I met you
Thought I had found my protection
I felt that I'd found someone to help me through my struggles
But a strong wind came into my life
Something unexpected happened
It surely took me by surprise
It was completely unexpected
I can't seem to control these tears
I can't stop crying
That's falling from my eyes
Tears are streaming down my face
Sea of love
A powerful and intense feeling of love
Baby, I depended on you
I relied on you to help me navigate the challenges of life
For the love navigation
To guide me in matters of love
But now you've gone and deserted me
But now you've abandoned me
Can't you see that I'm in desperation
Don't you understand how desperate I am?
I'm in the middle of a bad love storm
I'm in the midst of a difficult and painful situation
And it's bad as it can be
And it's as bad as it possibly could be
I look around, all I can see
I'm searching for a way out of my situation
Is water coming down over me
I feel like I'm drowning in my emotions
But right now I'm just drowning
At this moment, I feel completely overwhelmed
A sea of love, sea of love
A powerful and intense feeling of love
