Swim for my Life


Nothing is going the way it should

I hastily subdue these feelings of impatience

All this anxiety and nervousness is sending my heart into disorder

Just a boy hugging his knees in the midst of it all

Shivering and in tears, I repress all my regret

I cried all night, but now it seems dawn is breaking...


So, undoubtedly you're right

Even though right now I may try to turn back

And I keep on being stubborn about it, though I know it's monotonous

I'll start walking again, this time even farther, and I won't give up

If I could get just one more chance...


I'll keep it all locked away in my heart

Until my dreams come true...


I surrendered myself to a dismal emptiness

in the most critical of times

No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't quite reach

Aiming for the shore

I had to swim for my life

Withstanding the current, I can't even raise my voice

It could have been the end right there, but...


I don't think that love can save everything,

but there's something about your smile

that somehow healed my heart, and in your lips

I found the strength to stand up again

If only I could get just one more chance...


The flow of the river is intense even today

But I won't let go of your hand

I'll believe in the love that's in my heart forever

Until my dreams come true...


I don't think that love can save everything,

but there's something about your smile

that somehow healed my heart, and in your lips

I found the strength to stand up again

The flow of the river is intense even today

But I won't let go of your hand

I'll believe in the love that's in my heart forever

Until my dreams come true...
