Clare, Alex - Treading Water Lyrics
My heart just sank the moment I saw you,
You're the image of a girl that I used to know.
Don't be alarmed, if it seems hard, for me to explain,
But every detail of your face makes me recall the name.
Hmmm treading water, I keep,
Maybe it's another chance,
To mock myself again.
Maybe it's another chance,
I'm sure I'll fuck things up in the same way.
Maybe it's another chance,
To mock myself again.
Can you forgive the things I do, that I can't amend?
Not the way I yearn for her,
Girl you're a fire and you'll find,
That I want to get burned.
No matter what you can teach me,
I'm sure I'll never learn.
Hmmm treading water, I keep,
Treading water.
Maybe it's another chance,
To mock myself again.
Maybe it's another chance,
I'm sure I'll fuck things up in the same way.
Maybe it's another chance,
To mock myself again.
If my concentration,
Seems spread too thin.
And when you speak, my eyes glaze over.
I'm sorry girl, it's not you, it's her.
And you're another chance,
To mock myself again.
Maybe you're another chance,
I'm sure I'll fuck things up in the same way.
Maybe it's another chance.
Maybe it's another chance,
To mock myself again.
Baby your another chance,
I'm sure I'll fuck things up in the same way.
Maybe it's another chance,
To mock myself again.

Clare, Alex Treading Water Comments
Such talent I've seen FOR YEARS
You ARE SO UNDERRATED
I love his voice, it's very relaxing.
When I was younger I thought this song was the shit, the song sucks. Man keeps repeating the same thing over and over and over again
This was one of my favourites on the album. Diplo's dip into D&B was a breath of fresh air.
אני היחיד שהחזיק את את הדמעות בעניים?
2019 s2
Water in a Jaguar. really british. nice
8 years ago... time really flies. this man was ahead of his time. this song sounds like it‘s from 2017 or 2018
Is he the guy from agt?
Is me or this song makes me cry
Alex I love you
1:21 i thought the sound in the background was my mom lolz
When meet a nice girl but she just keeps reminding you of your ex .
Just how current female 👩🎤 🎤ers, like Taylor Swift, Ellie Goulding, Katy Perry, sing the words of 🌏 from a feminine point of view, there are male singers, like this 🐱, including Aloe Blacc, Coldplay, and Chainsmokers, singing songs from God’s masculine side.
That echo effect at 2:52 is fucking beautiful.
When I saw the video I had to go to the toilet 🚽🚽🚽
What a voice!
Just copied for myself but it might be useful
Lyrics
My heart just sank the moment I, saw you,
You’re the image of a girl, that I used to know.
Don’t be alarmed if it seems hard, for me to explain,
But every detail of your face, makes me recall the name.
Hmm I'm treading water,
I keep, treading water!
Maybe it’s another chance,
To mug myself again!
Maybe it’s another chance,
I’m sure I'll fuck things up in the same way
Maybe it’s another chance,
To mug myself again
Can you forgive the things I do,
That I can’t amend?
Not the way I yearn for her,
I hope you can’t pretend
Girl you’re a fire and you'll find,
That I want to get burnt,
No matter what you can teach me,
I’m sure I’ll never learn.
Hmmm treading water,
I keep, treading water
Maybe it’s another chance,
To mug myself again
Maybe it’s another chance,
I’m sure I'll fuck things up in the same way
Maybe it’s another chance,
To mug myself again
It’s my concentration,
Seems spread too thin,
And when you speak, my eyes glaze over
I’m sorry girl, it’s not you it’s her
And you're another chance,
To mug myself again
Baby you're another chance,
I’m sure I'll fuck things up in the same way
Baby it’s another chance
Baby it's another chance
To mug myself again,
Baby you're another chance,
I'm sure I'll fuck things up in the same way.
Baby It's another chance,
To mug myself again.
2018 anyone
Return please
He'll get there soon
Underrated.
This is glamourous.
Great vocals and love his beard💋
2018 and this song is still awesome......Drum and bass is awesome
Never awaken a woman's Love without the true intention of truly Loving her. Most men don't understand the concept.
Good strong voice. Respect 👍👍👍

7 years later i am still DROOLING. over this song. over this man! lol
21st April 2018 and i was missing this song!
2018 anyone? Song will always be great
Why is she crying for no reason? Pls answer me
Love this song, but also bleed for the poor car everytime.
You should totally release more songs like this when you put all your *passion* in belting out *maybe its another chance?* amazing notes with all that passion
So fuckin intense
luv this piece
she must have been like "fuck, i thought i was crying a lot"
Заебись
Extremely talented and extremely underrated
Remembers me to James Blake.
He and Adam Levine should sing a song together. hear their voices!!
Whose the hot girl lol
unique tone and creative sound....nicely done!!
I miss you Alex Clare!! Please comeback !!!
Drum n bass with dubstep bass synths + great lyrics. Is this guy still making music today!?
I want to see the first viewed person of this song
fuck you vevo
I really like this song but the chorus sounds a little fucked up, it repeats too quickly in the third bar. (this probably makes no sense).
i love it
most underrated song ever.
She should have opened his door at the end while crying.
hope you have a happy seder Alex shalom brother.
Holy **** ME why are they destroying the inside of that beautiful XJ? still an epic song.
The first chords...goosebumps
yeah true dat dude!!!
The song is very good. But this video is not bad.
I love this song
The picture doesn't fit to this song... Director deaf
just an opinion but man this song would of been great without the xtra techno beats.. jusssayn
Josh K The unplugged version is perfect.
dave fierro much appreciated
"hope you drown in the tears you make me shed "basically explains the vid a deep song with an equally deep vid gotta love the beard#BEARDGANGSTRONG

😎😎😎😎😎👌👍
at the chorus slow it down 0.5. sounds pretty cool.
where is the chorus ?
+Armin ist der Boss maybe 00:42
This song is really cool and different than most I've heard... o.o
I'm sorry girl, it's not you, it's her!
Bruno Marcos sorry girl it's not you it's her?
Hardcore Cheese I assumed he was with another girl but maybe he’s saying she has a bad side
looking like Chet Faker
I thought the same thing haha, but I like them bothh
I believe that in this video, Alex has to decide between staying in the car & letting the girl go, (in which the guilt will slowly take him over) or get out and attempt to fix the relationship...and maybe after that he can fix the interior that was just soiled...~
His songs always start off great , but dub-step choruses shit always ruins them
@will sheasley
you must be from the US and don't know the difference.
+Petrus Delassio I get frustrated when people who are wrong throw stones at those who are right. I am from the US, and I DO know the difference. That being said, I apologize for casting stones myself. My intention was to teach, not offend.
It's all good! Thank you Justin.
Well that's your opinion. I think it makes his songs great and unique!
+spunky xetron if anything the chorus' have dub influence not dubstep lol. love these tunes
He's being overwhelmed in the tears he made her shed.
Can you Marry me Alex
Can you Marry me Alex
does he say mock or mug myself again???
+themightythor mock
My girlfriend sometimes worries that I'm not over my ex. And it's a little true. I end up referring to him whenever I talk about anything from high school. I dated him for over 3 years, and I just can't get him out of my head. Her hair reminds me of running my fingers through his, short and curly. Her voice, soft and sweet and insecure, reminds me of his, loud and brassy, but somehow still afraid. The way we sometimes kiss, rough and strong, reminds me of how his teeth would drag over my lips. Maybe I'm not over him, but I'm trying and I want to be able to be here with her
Try and think of what makes her different from him that you like...
Hope it worked out in your favor.
Allen Baker hope it works out in your favor
Allen Baker I need to know what happened between you two! This honestly caught my attention like a fish with a hook.
Karyn Jennings 2016 doesn’t change the fact that a woman is made for a man and a man is made for a woman. Open minded doesn’t mean accepting everything you gotta see what feels right or wrong first then accept it. In 2026 people are gonna get married with animals and call it because it’s 2026. Come on people!! Have some logic and brains to think for your own!
I am taking swimming lessons so i can relate to this song
Fav singer
Amazing...
Weird sometimes how lyrics of a song relate to you so much....
+Yasmine Wilkins ikr
Sounds like a beautiful song. Adele and Alex Clare are great vocal to song.
