I only know that I was there, because I saw the film
I often wonder why you always believed I could swim
'Cause I did my very best to drown in this
You only wanted me rising, wanted me rising

Here's a firm goodbye to yesterday
And the time I wasted in the words
Trying to find my way to you, love

Here's a firm goodbye to all the ways
I was trying to lose you when you were
Right in front of me, right in front of me

I know that I'm inside
From the time I spent on the outside, looking in
What a storm to have been in
Yet I did my very best to drown in this
You only wanted me rising, wanted me rising

Here's a firm goodbye to yesterday
And the time I wasted in the words
Trying to find my way to you, love

Here's a firm goodbye to all the ways
I was trying to lose you when you were
Right in front of me, right in front of me

One moment later I would have been out, it seemed
One moment later I would have been out, it seemed
One moment later I would have been out, it seemed

Here's a firm goodbye to yesterday
And the time I wasted in the words
Trying to find my way to you, love

Here's a firm goodbye to all the ways
I was trying to lose you when you were
Right in front of me

Here's a firm goodbye to yesterday
And the time I wasted in the words
Trying to find my way to you, love

Here's a firm goodbye to all the ways
I was trying to lose you when you were
Right in front of me, right in front of me
