Underwater

Description:

This is a song that Sara Quin wrote and that appeared on the album If It Was You. Sara sings the lead vocals and Tegan sings the background vocals.

Lyrics:

Underwater, I wrote drowning

I used to be such a good, good swimmer

But for now, my head is in the clouds

I’m a silly love song, a twisted elbow crush song

I would go to jail with only boys

Just to prove I was as tough as you

And when I get out for good behaviour

I’ll be writing love songs, silly bangin’ knee songs

I’m a car crash, but I have to get up

And every morning it’s a clean up

All I need is time, time to love you

The forecast is grey but we’re staying inside

You must live close, I’ve seen you drive by

I left signs on the lawn, where have they gone?

Did you take them to tease me?

To follow or lead me?

You’re a silly love song

A verse, chorus, and such

So I’m a silly love song

A verse, chorus, and such

I’m a car crash, but I have to get up

And every morning it’s a clean up

All I need is time, time to love you

All I need is time, all I need is time

All I need is time, time to love you

Baby all I need is time, all I need is time

All I need is time, time to love you

Baby all I need is time, time to love you

Time to love you
