Treading Water

My heart just sank, the moment I saw you.
You're the image of a girl that I used to know.
Don't be alarmed, if it seems hard, for me to explain.
But every detail of your face makes me recall her name.
Treading water, I keep treading water.
Maybe it's another chance
To mug myself again.
Maybe it's another chance
I' m sure I'll f*ck things up in the same way.
Maybe it's another chance
To mug myself again.
Can you forgive the things I do that I can't amend.
Nor the way I yearn for her, I hope you can pretend.
Girl you're a fire and you'll find that I want to get burned.
No matter what you can teach me, I'm sure I'll never learn.
Treading water, I keep treading water.
Maybe it's another chance
To mug myself again.
Maybe it's another chance
I'm sure I'll f *ck things up in the same way.
Maybe it's another chance
To mug myself again.
If my concentration, seems spread too thin.
And when you speak my eyes glaze over.
I'm sorry girl, it's not you, it's her.
And you're another chance
To mug myself again.
Maybe you're another chance
I'm sure I'll f*ck things up in the same way.
Maybe it's another chance
Maybe it's another chance
To mug myself again
Maybe you're another chance
I'm sure I'll f*ck things up in the same way.
Maybe it's another chance
To mug myself again
