*** Deepwater ***

Deepwater deepwater
I'm in trouble and I'm
Up to my neck again
Deepwater deepwater
I'm out of money and
It's banked by the fat - fish
Opening and closing their mouths
But there's no sound in my ears
I never wanted to be
In deepwater again

Deepwater deepwater
Too hard to sleep with my eyes open
Deepwater deepwater
Crying ice - cold tears
A drop in the ocean
Killer sharks watching
My every move

Echoes of someone laughing at me
I never wanted to be
In deep water again

Deepwater drifting miles
And miles and miles away
Deepwater drifting miles and miles away
Deepwater drifting miles and miles away
Away Away

Deepwater deepwater
Drown my sorrows with
Too many blues
Deepwater deepwater
Sometimes I've had to
Cast away my pride
Like a prisoner on an island
Watching the tide
Cut off shut off no one holds the key
I never wanted to be
In deep water again

Deepwater drifting miles
And miles and miles away
Deepwater drifting miles
And miles and miles away

Deepwater drifting miles
And miles and miles and miles
Away Away

Deepwater drifting downstream
Won't you throw me afloat
Deepwater fighting the current
Staring at your boat

Deepwater drifting miles
And miles and miles away
Deepwater drifting miles
And miles and miles away

Deepwater drifting miles
And miles and miles and miles
Away Away
