Backstroke

Delicately
 ♪
 Kelly from town's got a crush on you
 Over coffee
 ♪
 I pick your brain all afternoon
 Pick up your cold feet
 ♪
 She will never love you like I do
 I'll swim backstroke to keep from drowning
 Nose to the sky, carve your name in the baby blue
 
 And I'll fall asleep to the sounds of the late noon
 I'll swim backstroke to keep from drowning
 Nose to the sky, carve your name in the baby blue
 And I'll fall asleep to the sounds of the late noon
 Waiting, waiting, I'm waiting
 I keep waiting and waiting and waiting
 I keep waiting and waiting and waiting
 I keep waiting and waiting and waiting
 Elegantly
 ♪
 I stand poised waiting for the end
 It's staring straight back at me
 ♪
 Tiny little terrors won't get out of my head
 
 Legs keeping me afloat
 Even in the deepest pits of a shallow love
 I know that you're leaving, keep me in undertow
 Oh, how you deceive me, this feeling in my bones
 I know that you're leaving
 I'll swim backstroke to keep from drowning
 Nose to the sky, carve your name in the baby blue
 And I'll fall asleep to the sounds of the late noon
 I'll swim backstroke to keep from drowning
 Nose to the sky, carve your name in the baby blue
 And I'll fall asleep to the sounds of the late noon
 All of our strangers and all of our foes
 Come and stand by the water where so many froze
 And I can't feel my body, I feel all their eyes
 But I won't turn to look, keep my nose to the sky
 And it's awfully silent, the quiet will ring
 In my ears underneath as I'm starting to sink
 And as I see the bottom, it's all I can do
 To keep waiting and waiting and waiting for you
 I keep waiting and waiting, waiting for you
 I keep waiting and waiting, waiting for you
 I keep waiting and waiting, waiting for you
 I keep waiting, waiting, waiting for you
 I keep waiting (waiting, waiting for you)
 I keep waiting (waiting, waiting for you)
 I keep waiting, waiting, waiting for you
 But you're weighing me, weighing me, weighing me further
