Drown
Lise Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let me drown in
Drown in your love babe
Take me deep and submerge my body
Let me drown in
Drown in your love babe
Let your current take control of me
I've been ready for you to immerse me in your love
These feelings I have for you are rushing in like a flood

Take me to your heart's fountain
I won't hesitate I'll jump right in
I won't try to swim, let the water fill in my lungs so I can breath you more
Let me drown in
Drown in your love babe
Take me deep and submerge my body
Let me drown in
Drown in your love babe
Let your current take control of me
Seas, rivers, lakes and oceans
Under the waves riding the motions
Don't save me let me sink
It's your love I wanna drink
H2O is all I know
Don't wanna come up for air
If you're not there then I don't really care
Let the tides pull me away
Let me drown and suffocate
Oxygen is you alone
This love is surreal
It's too good to be true
An outer body experience
I see myself drowning into you
Just like the water fills in my lungs
Pour your love in and fill me up
This is where I wanna stay

Drift away in your embrace
Pull me down and let me drown
