Missy Higgins Drowning Lyrics

Drowning Lyrics

Maybe I'm just living out the same old stories in and out 

But you know that don't make it easier 

Time will fly away with me if truth won't stop and let me see 

And tell me I am to believe that you and I should never be again 

I'm drowning 

When the one you leave is the one thing you believe 

You say goodbye when underneath's your one belief 

That love rules all, conquers all 



It's funny how the times that seem unbearable 

Are the ones that you don't ever want to end 

And when your childhood slips away

You find you face a brand new day

And you know it can't be the same again



'Cause when you leaved you stayed in my memory 

I'm saying goodbye for now and have a drink for us

And good luck in finding your way



Growing out will sometimes seem so far away 

Never knowing if I'll live to see another day 

Never seem to find out what to do 

No one seems to tell you 

'Cause you're drowning 



When the one you leave is the one thing you believe 

You say goodbye when underneath's your one belief 

That love rules all, conquers all 

That love rules all, it conquers all
