lyrics

(instrumental, hopeful)

You said you couldn't swim and then you jumped
I watched you go in badly off the side
You came up laughing with your hair all wrong
And that's the moment, that's the exact time

I count to three in everything (to three)
I've counted all my life
And I forgot the counting once
The second that you surfaced

Hold your breath, hold your breath
The best bit's always right before you go
Hold your breath, hold your breath
Then let it out and tell me what you know

You're a terrible swimmer and a decent human being
And I have loved you since the water in July
I've trained for everything I've ever done
Except this, and this is going fine

(filtered, distant)
Breathe on the third stroke.
Breathe on the third stroke.
Or don't. Or just stay under. Either way.
(BUILD 16 BARS, FULL DROP)

Hold your breath, hold your breath
The best bit's always right before you go
Hold your breath, hold your breath
Then let it out and tell me what you know

(hold your breath...)
