Passion Pit - My Brother Taught Me How To Swim Lyrics






My brother taught me how to swim
We treaded water underneath the ocean's skin
And then he washed away my sins
He held me closer as the tide was coming in

But then why, what could I say?
What would it mean?
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I need
Just a child, always waiting
All along he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Gone so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost

My brother taught me how to give
He spreads his love until it stretches too thin
Oh how I wanna be like him
He takes away the weight before your heart gives in

But then why, what could I say?
What would it mean?
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I need
Just a child, always waiting
All along he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Gone so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost

I got lost
I got lost
If I love the way my brother loves
None of it would happen like the way that it was

But then why, what could I say?
What would it mean?
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I need
Just a child, always waiting
All along he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Gone so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost

    Omg I hope not, childhood ruined😂
    Good observation👌

    Not really, the song really makes itself clear, maybe the title and the first part of the song makes you think so but that's as far as you can get with your way of interpretating it

  5. J.... A....

    Great song for summer!

  6. K.... S....

    I was reading a review for the album and it was talking about this song and for the bridge when it says "I got lost" they said that it said "Hey get lost" And I found it a bit offensive.
