lyrics

If the water's too cold
Better build yourself a boat to live
Surviving for the soul
But I'm old enough to know
The two of us won't fit

Never going slow
Feeling low, trying to cope
So I drove to the coast
With the hopes to get out of here

Then I saw your face just a little late
Tried to make a change but I stayed
'Til our fate faded out of fear

Wish that you had taken the wheel now
Didn't know which way to steer or how
If only you had taken the wheel
'Cause now it's too cold

If the air is too thin
Try to breathe a little in to last
Slowing down your veins
Pumping in the pain
From both of our lives' past

Never going slow
Feeling low, trying to cope
So I drove to the coast
With the hopes to get out of here

Then I saw your face just a little late
Tried to make a change but I stayed
'Til our fate faded out of fear

Wish that you had taken the wheel now
Didn't know which way to steer or how
If only you had taken the wheel
'Cause now it's too cold

If the water's too cold
Better build yourself a boat to live
Surviving for the soul
But I'm old enough to know
The two of us won't fit

I guess that's what you get
When you go to Venice
In the wintertime

It's beautiful and it's cold
So you're still gonna freeze your toes
It's beautiful and there's hope
But you're still gonna leave alone

I guess that's what you get
When you go to Venice
In the wintertime

It's beautiful and it's cold
So you're still gonna freeze your toes
It's beautiful and there's hope
But you're still gonna leave alone

You're still gonna leave alone
