My Brother Taught Me How To Swim Lyrics

My brother taught me how to swim
We treaded water underneath the ocean's skin
And then he washed away my sins
He held me closer as the tide was coming in

But then why, what could I say?
What would it mean?
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I need
Just a child, I was waiting
All along he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Gone so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost

My brother taught me how to give
He spilled his love until it stretches too thin
Oh how I wanna be like him
He takes away the weight before your heart gives in

But then why, what could I say?
What would it mean?
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I need
Just a child, I was waiting
All along he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Gone so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost

I got lost
I got lost
If I love the way my brother loves (I got lost)
None of it would happen like the way that it was

But then why, what could I say?
What would it mean?
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I need
Just a child, I was waiting
All along he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Gone so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost
