You held my heart tight in your hand
We were two lovers by the shore
You were the one whom I adored
With every ounce of who I was,
But we were just too far away
I couldn't hold you, couldn't find
The way to say the words
I needed to, I love you, oh I love you
You were treading in the ocean
While I was sinking in the sand,
I had the urge to swim and save you
But I couldn't, I was trapped on land,
I had no means to go and reach you,
You were too far out to sea,
I loved you with every ounce of my being
But you see, I don't believe
I don't believe that it's me who should save you
There's gotta be someone much braver,
I am doomed by my misbehavior
I am not your savior, I am not your savior,
Someone else will be much braver,
Someone else will be much braver.
You were being taken by the waves,
As I fell right through the grains
Of sand barely keeping me up,
I couldn't stand, I couldn't come to say
The words I meant to say,
I love you more each day,
I love you more each day
But that don't take away my pain
Because you're too far away.
I don't believe that it's me who should save you
There's gotta be someone much braver,
I am doomed by my misbehavior
I am not your savior, I am not your savior,
Someone else will be much braver,
Someone else will be much braver.
I don't have a life vest nor a paddle,
I just couldn't ever win this battle,
It's a war and I'm just saddled with the loss
Of being straddled by incompetence
And frazzled by my lack of strength to save you.
I don't believe that it's me who should save you
There's gotta be someone much braver,
I am doomed by my misbehavior
I am not your savior, I am not your savior,
Someone else will be much braver,
Someone else will be much braver.
I don't believe that it's me who should save you
There's gotta be someone much braver,
I am doomed by my misbehavior
I am not your savior, I am not your savior,
Someone else will be much braver,
Someone else will be much braver.
