ELBA - Water Wheel Lyrics

Baby we were never afloat and never swam as we were supposed to
We would struggle to hold what was left of our heads
Above the water around us, as it came to surround us
Well I guess that it found us out
Rain was nothing new, all we knew were shades of blue
And we grew far too tired to fight, so we let our love drown
The water level came down, and you drifted away and left me higher than dry
You left me higher than dry, higher than dry, higher than dry

So now be my water wheel, spin back to me, spin back to me
Turn until you feel, you're back to me, you're back to me
Spin until you're back to me

And I know you slowly drifted away but when I stand in the rain
I remember your taste and every time that it hits me
I imagine you're with me and I see how it could be if I found you again
But the water just plays me makes me think that I'm crazy
Gets me thinking that maybe you will come back my way
Then I see my reflection and I make the connection
Between you and the water and this feeling of pain

And I'm crossing bridges here to make sure
That the water still runs down from above
And like a wheel you will come rolling back my way
And we won't drown but we will drench ourselves in love

So now be my water wheel, spin back to me, spin back to me
Turn until you feel, you're back to me, I'll swim to meet you if you'll
Be my water wheel, spin back to me, we're lost at sea but if you'll
Be my water wheel, I'll keep you close, won't let you go and we'll stay

Floating on always, riding the crests of waves
So much love for you to feel, if you'll be my water wheel
