Drowning Lyrics


Backstreet Boys Drowning

Songwriters: Thompson, Linda D; Carlsson, Andreas; Yacoub, Rami;

Oh, oh yeah

Don't pretend you're sorry
I know you're not
You know you got the power
To make me weak inside

But girl, you're leaving me breathless
But it's okay
'Cause you are my survival
Now hear me say

I can't imagine
Life without your love
And even forever
Don't seem like long enough

'Cause every time I breathe I take you in
And my heart beats again
Baby, I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love

And every time I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love
Baby, I can't help it
Keep me drowning in your love

Maybe I'm a drifter
Maybe not
'Cause I have known the safety
Of flowing freely in your arms

And I don't need another lover
It's not for me
'Cause only you can save me
Oh, can't you see

I can't imagine
Life without your love
And even forever
Don't seem like long enough
(Don't seem like long enough, yeah)

'Cause every time I breathe I take you in
And my heart beats again
Baby, I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love

And every time I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love
Baby, I can't help it
Keep me drowning in your love

Go on and pull me under
Cover me with dreams, yeah
Love me mouth to mouth now
You know I can't resist
'Cause you're the air I breathe

Every time I breathe I take you in
('Cause every time I breathe, yeah)
And my heart beats again
Baby, I can't help it
(Baby I can't help it)
Keep me drowning in your love

Every time I try to rise above
I'm swept away by love
Baby, I can't help it
Keep me drowning in your love

Baby, I can't help it
Got me drowning
(Keep me drowning in your love)

Got me drowning
(Keep me drowning in your love)
Baby, I can't help it
(I can't help it, can't help it)
Got me drowning
(No, no)

Every time I breathe I take you in
(Girl, I do)
And my heart beats again
Baby, I can't help it
(Baby I can't help it)
Keep me drowning in your love

Every time I try to rise above
(Got me drowning)
I'm swept away by love
Baby, I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love
