I lost it all 
You got it back 
Believed in me 
When I gave up on myself again 

A sudden rain 
Revealed your face 
I knew right then 
No matter where I go I'd 
Have your hand to hold 

We will sink and 
We will swim 
'Til the ocean turns to sand 
We will laugh 
We will cry 
'Til there's no more breath inside 
Cause we will sink 
We will swim 

I was, 
A tender reed 
Bent in the wind 
And then the storm passed 
And you helped me stand upright again 

So here we are 
Nothing to lose 
So take my hand 
We'll jump right in 
The water's warm 
Its time to live 

We will sink and 
We will swim 
'Til the ocean turns to sand 
We will laugh 
We will cry 
'Til there's no more breath inside 
Cause we will sink 
We will swim 

It doesn't rain 
For nothing 
It will shine 
For you 

We will sink and 
We will swim 
Til' the ocean turns to sand 
We will laugh 
We will cry 
Til' there's no more breath inside 
Cause we will sink 
We will swim
