I sent a hat for when you lose your hair
I hope it's still the kind you like to wear
Just heard the news from friends the other day
What would you say
If you could see the way that I still care
Undercurrents pull me down
Wrote a hundred notes, threw them all away
It's even worse to watch you drown
Knowing I'm the one who will be ok
When we were young, we'd lay out on your lawn
We'd talk for hours, and night would turn to dawn
We spoke of death as if we understood
And you never could
Convince me we go somewhere when we're gone
Undercurrents pull me down
Wrote a hundred notes, threw them all away
It's even worse to watch you drown
Knowing I'm the one who will be ok
Stay up all night and stare
My body just can't seem to cry
I'd let you turn me down each day
If it meant you would end up alright
We spoke this word before
Just because you were born in July
I thought we had infinite time
Undercurrents pull me down
Wrote a hundred notes, threw them all away
It's even worse to watch you drown
Knowing I'm the one who will be ok
Undercurrents pull me down
I could pack a bag, catch a plane today
'Cause it hurts to watch you drown
But after all this time, what is there to say?
