Head Above Water lyrics - Avril Lavigne

I've gotta keep the calm before the storm

I don't want less, I don't want more

Must bar the windows and the doors

To keep me safe, to keep me warm

Yeah my life is what I'm fighting for

Can't part the sea, can't reach the shore

And my voice becomes the driving force

I won't let this pull me overboard

God, keep my head above water

Don't let me drown, it gets harder

I'll meet you there at the altar

As I fall down to my knees

Don't let me drown, drown, drown

Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown

So pull me up from down below

'Cause I'm underneath the undertow

Come dry me off and hold me close

I need you now I need you most

God, keep my head above water

Don't let me drown, it gets harder

I'll meet you there at the altar

As I fall down to my knees

Don't let me drown, drown, drown

(Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown)

Don't let me drown, drown, drown

And keep my head above water

(Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown)

Above water

And I can't see in the stormy weather

I can't seem to keep it all together

And I can't swim the ocean like this forever

And I can't breathe

God, keep my head above water

I lose my breath at the bottom

Come rescue me, I'll be waiting

I'm too young to fall asleep

So God, keep my head above water

Don't let me drown, it gets harder

I'll meet you there at the altar

As I fall down to my knees

Don't let me drown

Don't let me drown

(Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown)

Don't let me drown

And keep my head above water

(Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown)

Above water
