What It Feels Like to Drown Songtext
von Joe Hertler & The Rainbow Seekers

We were caught up in the pouring rain
When you′d asked me if I'd mind
If we could retreat to a secret place
Buried in the dust of time.
You took me to the water′s edge
Our feet were bare, our hands bound
We waited until the currents swept
Away the thoughts of the old time.
The trees that grow along the river banks,
Forgotten kings with tarnished crowns,
They gazed as if they knew our names
And told us stories as the sun went down.
By moonlight, some ghosts arrived
Like memories from a childhood.
With them we bottled fireflies
And ventured forward leaving for the darker woods.


We leaned back in the summer rays,
Just as the rain came pouring down.
Arms are spread because the water hit our faces.
This is what it feels like to drown.
And in that moment, she took my hand
And said, "Surrender to the stars now
Because we're nothing but dust, my love."
This is what it feels like to drown,
This is what it feels like to drown,
This is what it feels like to drown,
This is what it feels like to drown,
This is what it feels like to drown,
This is what it feels like to drown,
This is what it feels like to drown,
This is what it feels like to drown,
This is what it feels like to drown.
