Drowning
Lukie D Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Taking you in everytime I breathe
Don't pretend you're sorry
I know you're not
You know you got the power
To make me weak inside
Girl you leave me breathless
But it's okay cause you're my survival
Now hear me say
I can't imagine life without your love
Even forever don't see like long enough
Cause everytime I breathe I take you in
And my heart beats again
Baby I can't help it
You keep me
Drowning in your love
Everytime I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love
Baby I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
Maybe I'm a drifter
Late at night
Cause I long for the safety of flowing
Freely in your arms
I don't need another life line
It's not for me
Cause only you can save me
Oh can't you see
I can't imagine life without your love
And even forever don't seem like long Enough
Cause everytime I breathe
I take you in and
My heart beats again
Baby I can't help it you keep me Drowning in your love and
Everytime I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love
Baby I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
Go on and pull me under
Cover me with dreams, yeah
Love me mouth to mouth now
You know I can't resist
Cause you're the air that I breathe
I take you in and y heart beats again
Baby I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
Everytime I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love and
Baby I can't help it you keep me
Drowning in your love
Cause everytime I breathe and
Take you in and my heart beats again
Baby I can't help it
You keep me
Drowning in your love
Everytime I try and rise above
I'm swept away by love
Baby I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
Cause everytime I breathe
I take you in
And my heart beats again
Baby I can't help it you keep me Drowning in your love
Evertime I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love




Baby I can't help it you keep
Drowning in your love.
