Lyrics

Sinkin’ in the Water, Comin’ Up for Air

Intro

Chorus
It’s like sinkin’ in the water,
Then comin’ up for air.
Just like sinkin’ in the water,
Then comin’ up for air.

Verse 1
You knock me down, then pull me up,
You drain me dry, then fill my cup.
You show me cold, then make me hot,
You hold it back, then give a lot.

Guitar Bridge

Chorus

Verse 2
You treat me bad, then treat me good,
You say you won’t, then say you would.
You slap my face, then kiss my lips,
You tell me no, then rock your hips.

Guitar Bridge

Chorus x 2

Verse 3
You treat me wrong, then treat me right,
Push me away, then hold me tight.
You make me bleed, then fix me up,
You hurt me bad, your love is tough.

Guitar Bridge

Chorus x 3
