Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I want to dive into your ocean
I'm afraid your waters are too deep
And I'll fall with honest true devotion
Far from any shore that I've known before
And I'd never leave, and I'd forget to breathe
[Verse 2]
I want to open up the door to
The promise of love that you're, I'm sure
And I'm afraid of how much I'll adore you
That your love is the only kind of love
That I would ever want to know
[Verse 3]
So I'll draw a line, before complete surrender
'Cause you'd just be too much for me
Too strong, too sweet, and too damn overwhelming
I'm dying to make the most of us together
Because this is just what it is
And what it is I know I've never felt it
[Verse 4]
You paint my world in a different kind of color
You play new chords to my song
And we could so easily be lovers
As much as I would love to try
We'd end up in a place we don't belong
[Verse 5]
So I'll draw a line, before complete surrender
'Cause you'd just be too much for me
Too strong, too sweet, and too damn overwhelming
I'm dying to make the most of us together
Because this is just what it is
And what it is I know I've never felt it
[Verse 6]
So I'll draw a line, before complete surrender
'Cause you'd just be too much for me
Too strong, too sweet, and too damn overwhelming
I'm dying to make the most of us together
Because this is just what it is
And what it is I know I've never felt it
I want to dive into your ocean
