[Verse 1]
I've seen love free the sword
If it's love that keeps us warm
I've got it for you
I've got it for you

[Pre-Chorus]
That's life, so sad
Flew a little close to the sun
You're trying to get me back, but I'm gone, gone, gone

[Chorus]
These days, these days
I'm trying to keep my head above water
Keep my head above water, no
These days, these days
I swear it's so cyclical, merry-go
I don't know, ooh

[Verse 2]
Let it be known throughout the land
I have thrown up both my hands
I need you more than I can bear
I surrender

[Pre-Chorus]
That's life, too bad
You flew a little close to the sun
You're trying to get it back, but it's gone, gone, gone
[Chorus]
These days, these days
I'm trying to keep my head above water
Keep my head above water, no
These days, these days
I swear it's so cyclical, merry-go
I don't know

[Bridge]
You're the one I need like air I breathe
I don't even gotta think about it
So many nights I cried and I cried and I cried
And I don't think I can speak on it

[Pre-Chorus]
That's life, too bad
You flew a little close to the sun
You're trying to get it back, but it's gone, gone, gone

[Chorus]
These days, these days
I'm trying to keep my head above water
Keep my head above water, no
These days, these days
I swear it's so cyclical, merry-go
I don't know, oh
