there's an ocean in between us

so light a candle in the darkness

i keep trying to swim towards you

but i'm only treading water

under moonlight

i close my eyes

and i just dive in

do what i like

my paradise don't know what time is

i'll make my way to shore

like i've been here before

fading to fall

under it all under the covers

echoing walls

i hear you call

come to the surface

i make my way to shore

like i've been here before

there's an ocean in between us

so light a candle in the darkness

i keep trying to swim towards it

but i'm only treading water

higher higher higher higher higher higher higher

higher higher higher higher higher high

but i'm only treading water

higher higher higher higher higher higher

but i'm only treading water

higher higher higher higher higher higher

but i'm only treading water

there's an ocean in between us

so light a candle in the darkness

i keep trying to swim towards you

but i'm only treading water

under moonlight

i close my eyes

and i just dive in

do what i like

my paradise don't know what time is

i'll make my way to shore

like i've been here before

afraid in the fall

under it all under the covers

echoing walls

i hear you call

come to the surface

i'll make my way to shore

like i've been here before

there's an ocean in between us

so light a candle in the darkness

i keep tryna swim towards it

but i'm only treading water

there's an ocean in between us so light

a candle in the darkness

i keep trying to swim towards you

but i'm only treading water

there's an ocean in between us so light

a candle in the darkness

i keep trying to swim towards you

but i'm only treading water

higher higher higher higher

but i'm only treading water

higher higher higher higher high

but i'm only treading water
