Ilse DeLange - Learning To Swim Lyrics

Down in the water baby you threw me
Into an ocean, cut the line and left me with no air
Talking about the hundred and one good things
That you gave me
But left out that one thing that I wanted

You always knew how to make me dependent
But baby I end it, I'm leaving you stranded
Oh yeah, I'm leaving you stranded

If you try to hold me down, get off boy
Don't you know I'm finally learning to swim
I know you've been circling round my heart boy
Watch your back, I'm gonna pull you in
Run and get your life coat, this ain't no love boat
I already left that sinking ship
So if you try to hold me down, get off boy
'Cause I'm finally learning to swim

Over-exaggerated your heart size
I guess I was blind eyed, but baby not this time
Stuck in between the rock and your dumb face
I make my own way and I play my own games

Ground control, your ego has landed
Now baby I end it, I'm leaving you stranded
Oh yeah, I'm leaving you stranded

If you try to hold me down, get off boy
Don't you know I'm finally learning to swim
I know you've been circling round my heart boy
Watch your back, I'm gonna pull you in
Run and get your life coat, this ain't no love boat
I already left that sinking ship
So if you try to hold me down, get off boy
'Cause I'm finally learning to swim

You give to take, you're built to break, your big
Mistake was that you're never man enough to let me in
I tried and tried but realized that every word just built a lie
But honey now it's caving in

If you try to hold me down, get off boy
'Cause I'm finally learning to swim

If you try to hold me down, get off boy
Don't you know I'm finally learning to swim
I know you've been circling round my heart boy
Watch your back, I'm gonna pull you in
Run and get your life coat, this ain't no love boat
I already left that sinking ship
So if you try to hold me down, get off boy
'Cause I'm finally learning to swim

If you try to hold me down, get off boy
'Cause I'm finally learning to swim
