Lyrics:

I want to swim in your current

Carry me out, up and away

I want to float

On every word you say

Want to be underneath your weather

Every cloud and ray of sun

I want to float

In between everyone

I want to sink down like a stone

You never lost me, you never broke

I want to be adrift on your radio

Oh take me under, take me home

The undertow

I want to be, all of a sudden

Every wave and undertow

I want to float

Everywhere I go

I want to sink down like a stone

You never lost me, you never broke

I want to be adrift on your radio

Oh take me under, take me home

The undertow

I want to sink down like a stone

(The undertow)

You never lost me, you never broke

(The undertow)

I want to be adrift on your radio

(The undertow)

Oh take me under, take me home

(The undertow)

I want to sink down like a stone
