It was in the atmosphere
It was love and it was fear
All at the same time
I should know
Slow-motion tragedy
In the car she touched my cheek
And forever had to change
Think I’m losing what I planned to save
I can’t live inside a dream
She said I’m falling in love with myself again
And that’s enough for me
And with that we fell apart
Treading water holding heavy hearts
It’s the waking up alone
It’s the pain of growing old
And pain can be selfish
I should know
So I’m drifting out to sea
Waiting for the wind to carry me
But you ain’t the wind and I can’t swim
I only have myself to save
I can’t live inside a dream
She said I’m falling in love with myself again
And that’s enough for me
And with that we fell apart
Treading water holding heavy hearts
Well I met somebody new
He used to love you like I do
And he looks a lot like me
Guess we’ll see
I can’t give you what you need
She said but I can offer a friend
And that’s all that I can be
And with that we fell apart
Treading water holding heavy hearts
We’re trading water holding heavy hearts
