we're sitting by a fire in a house that's not a home
I can't remember when it ever felt like one
cuz I'm sitting here with you but I'm all alone
that look in your eyes says it all
we took our cheap shots right through the chest
we kept firing til we had nothing left
and I'm so afraid we're both not done yet
I think it's time that we call it quits
Chorus
And go before the water gets too high
we both can make it out alive
Oh I never wanted to say goodbye
but the water's getting too high
There once was a time when our love ran deep
it cut through us both like a roaring stream
we thought it was all that we would ever need
but somewhere we lost you and me
now your words run through me like fire in the wind
how can you say these things after all that you did
we've taken everything we both had to give
and honey I can't keep going on like this
Chorus
Let's go before the water gets too high
we both can make it out alive
Oh I never wanted to say goodbye
but the water's getting too high
the water's getting too high
