Swimming - Judie Tzuke

I put myself aside a private place to fall

But when I stepped on it it wasn’t there at all

I thought I knew how low I could afford to drop

I know I’ve been through that

I couldn’t seem to stop but I’m still

Swimming

And I’m lost in some big ocean I am

Swimming

Though I’m wounded I’m not broken

Swimming

When will the boat come for me I’m so tired of swimming

When you look at me I know you feel the pain

And then it goes away and I feel strong again

How many disappointments can I take?

Until I reach the end of the dream and I break

Will I be

Swimming

Lost in some big ocean I am

Swimming

Though I’m wounded I’m not broken

Swimming

When will the boat come for me I’m so tired of swimming

As a child I always loved the water, it was the only place to be

Swimming

Lost in some big ocean I am

Swimming

Though I’m wounded I’m not broken

Swimming

When will the boat come for me I’m so tired of swimming
