Drowningby
Trevor Hegill, Toronto, Canada, Age 17
I never lost sight of your face
I held you so close to my heart
I almost lost my own identity
And in between my dreams
I saw you slipping away from me
But I refused to see
And waiting in my life
I made unnecesary compromises
That kept me hanging on
Chorus
One love, one love, has kept me
One heart, one heart, has left me
Drowning, drowing
Drowing in love, drowning in love...
I was never satisfied
No matter how hard I tried
I knew it was not alright
Instead of moving on
I stayed with what was gone
Avoiding all opportunity
I took an easy road
And kept you in my soul
Justifying my neutrality
I saw where my life had strayed
But my awareness never made
Me change my direction
Chorus
One love, one love, has kept me
One heart, one heart, has left me
Drowning, drowing
Drowing in love, drowning in love...
Oh, oh...
Questions can run very deep
The main reason why I keep
This emotional ghost haunting me
In being in my soul
The cancer love has grown
And it keeps me, keeps me senseless, keeps me cold
Chorus
One love, one love, has kept me
One heart, one heart, has left me
Drowning, drowning
Drowing in love, drowning in love...
Drowing
in love, drowning in love...
