Oh, you're like a dragonfly and you're living too high up
Drifting by the riverside while you're making your mind up
I can't help but wonder why
You wanna keep your eyes shut
One day and then it's gone, gone, gone
Don't know what you have until it's gone, gone, gone
Counting all the reasons why it's all gone wrong
Don't know what you have until it's gone, gone, gone, gone
Everybody's flirting
But you keep running from the water and it's coming to getcha
Feeling like a tide filling up with the pressure
Everybody's falling
But you keep on hanging on a wire, trying to hold it together
Don't you know you're never gonna mother your nature
Mother your nature
Mother your nature
Mother your nature
Oh do you feel your days dripping down like raindrops
Oh do you feel it weighing on your heart like a breezeblock
I can't find a reason why
You wanna be what you're not
One day and then it's gone, gone, gone
Don't know what you have until it's gone, gone, gone
Counting all the reasons why it's all gone wrong
Don't know what you have until it's gone, gone, gone, gone
Everybody's flirting
But you keep running from the water and it's coming to getcha
Feeling like a tide filling up with the pressure
Everybody's falling
But you keep on hanging on a wire, trying to hold it together
Don't you know you're never gonna mother your nature
Mother your nature
Mother your nature
Mother your nature
Every little word that your mama said, you're waiting on too long, gotta speak what's on your mind
(Mother your nature)
Looking for a better way to break the waves, to find your pace in love and leave it all behind
(Mother your nature)
Everybody's flirting
But you keep running from the water and it's coming to getcha
Feeling like a tide filling up with the pressure
Everybody's falling
But you keep on hanging on a wire, trying to hold it together
Don't you know you're never gonna mother your nature
Mother your nature
Mother your nature
Mother your nature
Mother your nature
Mother your nature
Mother your nature
