There's nothing that I can say,
To make you want to stay here with me forever.
There's nothing that I can do,
To make you want me like I need you to,
I need you to.

Just give me one last chance to say this.
Just give me one last chance to say what's on my mind,
And I will get it right.
If I could only get my head above the water for a moment of your time.
But you seem so strong and I can't hold my breath for long.
Have you ever tried to scream underwater?
You'll choke, you'll choke.

You said I always sang too loud to sing you a love song.
Well, I save my soft voice for the things I really mean.
You always said I had a hard time saying what's on my mind.
Well, here it goes:
I hate you for what you've done to me.

Just give me one last chance to say this.
Just give me one last chance to say what's on my mind,
And I will get it right.
If I could only get my head above the water for a moment of your time.
But you seem so strong and I can't hold my breath for long.
Have you ever tried to scream underwater?
You'll choke, you'll choke.

When the last word's been said and the last tear's been shed,
I will miss you, miss you my friend.
And I can't tell you lies,
Even after all these years – I still cry.
