sink or swim It's a thin thin sky, can't always hold me down And it's a long long day by the time the night rolls around Now it's all hashed out and we've shaken on the deal But if it all came down to yes or no I would tell them this was real I would tell them That it's a crowded room, you can't know everyone's name This is a big big world and I don't think you can feel all its pain That's why we're all spread out and we each face our chosen few And if it all came down to fight or flight I would take it on for you I would take it all on for you But it never sounds true when I try to say That I hope I find you at the end of my day is a living thing, and each one leaves me changed One by one they breathe into me, and is it any wonder I seem strange? And now it's all adrift And we're moving though we don't know how Because it all comes down to sink or swim and I am Swimming for it now, I am Swimming for it now, I am Swimming for it now lyrics & music by kris delmhorst © 1998 big bean music/ASCAP
