Sometimes I can almost hear it
Those words on the tip of your tongue
So clear I'm sure you feel it
Finish what your heart's begun
What is it about love these days
That makes it so hard to say?

If they're only words just say them
How much could they really mean?
What good are deep emotions
Floating at the bottom of the sea?
If they're only strings just play them
Dance around the room with me
What good are deep emotions
Floating at the bottom of the sea?
The bottom of the sea

Somewhere there's a fire inside you
Needs air like you need me
If you want love to find you
Open up your heart and scream
What is it about love these days
That makes it so hard to say?

If they're only words just say them
How much could they really mean?
What good are deep emotions
Floating at the bottom of the sea?
If they're only strings just play them
Dance around the room with me
What good are deep emotions
Floating at the bottom of the sea?
The bottom of the sea

If you can't give me all you've got
Then this love is probably not the answer
To the question
Pounding in my dreams
I want to race across the waves
With the light that never fades
If you can't fly with me
I'll leave you at the bottom of the sea
The bottom of the sea
The bottom of the sea
The bottom of the sea

If they're only words just say them
How much could they really mean?
What good are deep emotions
Floating at the bottom of the sea?
If they're only strings just play them
Dance around the room with me
What good are deep emotions
Floating at the bottom of the sea?
The bottom of the sea
The bottom of the sea
The bottom of the sea
Yeah, yeah
The bottom of the sea
