Swimming Home

Evanescence

Evanescence, 2011, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Way down
I've been way down
Underneath this skin
Waiting to hear my name again
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me
I adore you still
But I hear them calling
And nothing can hold me
Way down (do you really want me?)
All the way down (do you really want me?)
I will hear your voice (do you really want me?)
But I'll no longer understand (no one's really loved me)
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me
I adore you still
But I hear them calling
I was looking to the sky
When I knew I'd be swimming home
And I cannot betray my kind
They are here, it's my time
I'm sorry
Nothing can hold me (do you really want me?)
I adore you still
But I hear them calling (calling)
And nothing can hold me
