Everybody Else Gets Wet - Delorentos

I’ve been learning to dive

From photos on the internet

While everybody else gets wet

Everybody else gets wet

Before I learn how to swim

I wanna know what to expect

While everybody else gets wet

Everybody else gets wet

You give me hope

That I’ll learn the ropes

So teach me the strokes

Now we’re starting dry

Not gonna get too wrecked

While everybody else gets wet

Everybody else gets wet

At the water side

Treat your body with respect

While everybody else gets wet

Everybody else gets wet

You give me hope

That I’ll learn the ropes

So teach me the strokes

Don’t wanna be your ghost

Won’t be your shadow

Not gonna get too close

Won’t be your shadow

Standing with the coats

I’m the one that you forget

While everybody else gets wet

Everybody else gets wet

Still the quiet child

Going for the cool effect

While everybody else gets wet

Everybody else gets wet

You give me hope

That I’ll learn the ropes

So teach me the strokes

Don’t wanna be your ghost

Won’t be your shadow

Not gonna get too close

Won’t be your shadow

And all I ever wanted to be

Was someone to reach for

And all I ever wanted to feel

Was the tide turn around for me

Sometimes lost, always beautiful

Don’t wanna be your ghost

Won’t be your shadow

Don’t wanna get too close

Won’t be your shadow
