I don't love you but I'm lost   Thinking of you and the ghosts   Of so many special moments   That passed so quickly at the time      And now, they come and track me down   And echo round and round and round   And time goes slowly or disappears completely   And I feel like I fade away, like drowning      I don't need you but it's so hard   To be without you, though you're not far away   I censor my emotions   And tell myself to bide my time      But every time you come around   You batter my defenses down   But so gently, like some sweet hypnosis   And the world just slips away, I'm drowning      It's dark, my heart is pounding   I'm sinking down into a pool of passion   There's laughter as I drown   Like so many lost before me   Damned by lust and gone to hell      And then I look into your eyes   And something melts, I shake inside   And cool water washes me all over   Washes me away and still I'm drowning
