Lyrics

[Chorus]
Love is like the sea, leaves you on your knees
Fell it pull you in, then it takes ya, takes ya over, over
Love is like the sea, leaves you on your knees
First you're floatin' high, then it takes ya, takes ya under, under
[Verse 1]
Well it's cold, cold under water in the night time
But I dove, dove to the bottom to see what I'd find
[PreChorus]
That's when I saw a light, a glowin' paradise
Thought I'd stay awhile, it's been callin' me underwater, child
Everything that I ever dreamed
Takin' my breath away, currents got hold of me
Sweepin' me away, wish that I could stay
Takes me to the top, it's the cycle that never stops
[Chorus]
Love is like the sea, leaves you on your knees
Feel it pull you in, then it takes ya, takes ya over, over
Love is like the sea, leaves you on your knees
First you're floatin' high, then it takes ya, takes ya under, under
[Bridge]
Takes ya, takes ya over
Yeah
Takes ya, takes ya under
Takes ya, takes ya over
Over
Takes ya, takes ya under
Say
[Verse 2]
I've been told, told you only find it once in a lifetime
So you better hold, hold on stronger than ever
Like it's the last time
[PreChorus]
So when you see the light like a ship in the night
You have found the place you been lookin' for
Like distant shore, don't you ever look back again
Here's somethin' you should know
Know
The sea is still in control
That's right
Cherish everyday 'cause ya never know
It can take away the very thing that you love the most
[Chorus]
Love is like the sea, leaves you on your knees
Fell it pull you in, then it takes ya, takes ya over, over
Love is like the sea, leaves you on your knees
First you're floatin' high, then it takes ya, takes ya under, under
[Bridge]
Takes ya, takes ya over
Oh
Takes ya, takes ya under
So far!
Takes ya, takes ya over
Takes ya, takes ya under
This is nothin' like the sea, yeah
Takes ya, takes ya over
Takes ya, takes ya under
Can you feel the pull?
Takes ya, takes ya over
It's callin' you
Takes ya, takes ya under
Come on
[Chorus]
Love is like the sea, leaves you on your knees
Feel it pull you in, then it takes ya, takes ya over, over
If you ever felt this way before, then ya know
Love is like the sea, leaves you on your knees
First you're floatin' high, then it takes ya, takes ya under, under
Oh, get down on your knees
[Outro]
Take me away, yeah
