lyrics
If I could make it across the water
If I could make it to the other side
If I could get to the place where I know I'll be safe
It won't matter how many
How many tears have been cried
I can feel it now
What's done is done
I'll get through somehow
I can't believe you're gone
Feels like nothing but pain
Though I know it won't last
Just like the driving rain
It will surely pass
Feels like I'm swimming against the tide
Going nowhere
If I could make it across the water
If I could make it to the other side
If I could get to the place where I know I'll be safe
It won't matter how many
How many tears have been cried
Some people stay together
While others drift apart
That's the risk you run
When you follow your heart
Feels like I'm swimming against the tide
Going nowhere
If I could make it across the water
If I could make it to the other side
If I could get to the place keeping the faith
Long after the tears have been cried
Feels like I'm swimming against the tide
How do I get through these lonely nights
It's overwhelming me
Feels like it's drowning me
Got to get over this somehow
If I could make it across the water
If I could make it to the other side
If I could get to the place keeping the faith
Long after the tears have been cried
I'm gonna make it across the water
I'm gonna make it to the other side
I'm gonna get to the place where I know I'll be safe
It won't matter how many
How many tears have been cried
It won't matter, no
How many tears have been cried
I'm gonna make it 'cross that water!
If I could make it to the other side
If I could get to the place where I know I'll be safe
It won't matter how many
How many tears have been cried
I can feel it now
What's done is done
I'll get through somehow
I can't believe you're gone
Feels like nothing but pain
Though I know it won't last
Just like the driving rain
It will surely pass
Feels like I'm swimming against the tide
Going nowhere
If I could make it across the water
If I could make it to the other side
If I could get to the place where I know I'll be safe
It won't matter how many
How many tears have been cried
Some people stay together
While others drift apart
That's the risk you run
When you follow your heart
Feels like I'm swimming against the tide
Going nowhere
If I could make it across the water
If I could make it to the other side
If I could get to the place keeping the faith
Long after the tears have been cried
Feels like I'm swimming against the tide
How do I get through these lonely nights
It's overwhelming me
Feels like it's drowning me
Got to get over this somehow
If I could make it across the water
If I could make it to the other side
If I could get to the place keeping the faith
Long after the tears have been cried
I'm gonna make it across the water
I'm gonna make it to the other side
I'm gonna get to the place where I know I'll be safe
It won't matter how many
How many tears have been cried
It won't matter, no
How many tears have been cried
I'm gonna make it 'cross that water!
