[Verse 1]
We started off so good
We were honestly happy
You used to tell me I was beautiful
Where did it all go wrong?
I can't believe there’s nothin' left worth saving
How'd it go from being in love to alone?
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s like we're swimming up a river
That's moving us downstream
We can't win together, no longer the same team
So you can watch my great escape tonight
[Chorus]
Makes me wonder, what's the use of all this?
What else can we call this?
Such a complicated love
Makes me wonder, what's the point in crying?
Passed the point of trying
I'm afraid that there's no saving us
[Post-Chorus]
Baby, I can’t be your lifeguard (We’re drowning)
I can't be your lifeguard (We’re drowning)
I can't be the lifeguard (No)
Nobody can save us now
Baby, I can't be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can’t be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can't be the lifeguard (No)
Nobody can save us now (We're drowning)
[Verse 2]
Right when you walk inside
No "Hello" when you see me
You're on the phone talking to your boys
We don't even speak two words
It's like a chore to get a "Hey, baby" from you
I don't know what happened to you and I, whoa
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna be the one living with regrets
Thought about it
Finally, I'm taking my deep breath, oh
Before I step outside of you tonight
[Chorus]
Makes me wonder, what's the use of all this?
What else can we call this?
Such a complicated love
Makes me wonder, what's the point in crying?
Passed the point of trying
I'm afraid that there's no saving us
[Post-Chorus]
Baby, I can't be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can't be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can't be the lifeguard (No)
Nobody can save us now (No one can save us now)
Baby, I can't be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can't be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can't be the lifeguard (No)
Nobody can save us now (We're drowning)
[Bridge]
And I can't find a raft to keep this love afloat
Where did it go?
There's no need for search and rescue no more, no more
And it's so long for hope
It's washed up on the shore
Baby, it's time that we both move on
'Cause we've been drowning now for too long
[Chorus]
Makes me wonder, what's the use of all this?
What else can we call this?
Such a complicated love
Makes me wonder, what's the point in crying?
Passed the point of trying
I'm afraid that there's no saving us
[Post-Chorus]
Baby, I can't be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can't be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can't be the lifeguard (No)
Nobody can save us now (No one can save us now)
Baby, I can't be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can't be your lifeguard (We're drowning)
I can't be the lifeguard (No)
Nobody can save us now (We're drowning)
