[Verse 1]
Have you ever been swimmin'
Waded into your knees
Waded into your chest
'Til water's up to your chin
And you really cut loose
And get brave and go floating
Remember the ground
And panic when it's gone

[Chorus]
That's how it is now
I don't have the ground
But I have you around
You, you anchor me down

[Verse 2]
Have you started forgetting
What it was to be small?
What it was to grow taller
And then stay as you are?
Can you see the gap widen
'Tween the old and the new ways
Honey, I miss the old days too
I've panicked 'cause they're gone
[Chorus]
That's how it is now
I don't have the ground
But I have you around
You, you anchor me down

[Chorus]
That's how it is now
I don't have the ground
But I have you around
You, you anchor me down

[Outro]
You anchor me down
You anchor me down
You anchor me down
