|
You saw the clothes and instinctively called for me |
|
You said it was far too cold to swim and he was too far out the sea |
|
But I had the hands of a clock beating me |
|
There was no time to deflate my evening with heroics like these |
|
I'm not sure what came over me my friend |
|
I must said, 'he's not drowning but waving', but you would not relent |
|
I know my hands are shaking but it's not cowardice again |
|
That stopped me from jumping in |
|
We're stood with water only up to our shins |
|
There is a storm blowing in |
|
Do I have to shoulder this one? |
|
If you wade in, then I'll wade in, |
|
Will I be blamed for this one? |
|
A freezing mist comes rolling in, |
|
I will be blamed for this one |
|
I saw him first, beaten and broken by waves |
|
Straight away, I knew you'd try and convince that he could be saved |
|
So much to prove, you loved first aid, |
|
It's not my fault that you listened to me |
|
When I said you that it was already too late |
|
There is a storm blowing in |
|
Do I have to shoulder this one? |
|
If you wade in, then I'll wade in, |
|
Will I be blamed for this one? |
|
A freezing mist comes rolling in, |
|
I will be blamed for this one |
|
Afraid you'll turn on me and I'll go down for this |
|
We're both to blame, you know it well |
|
We'll have to shoulder this one |
|
I wont tell, if you wont tell |
|
We'll have to live with this one |
|
A freezing mist comes rolling in |
|
I will be blamed for this one |
