My Brother Taught Me How To Swim

(album: Kindred - 2015)

My brother taught me how to swim
We treaded water underneath the ocean's skin
And then he washed away my sins
He held me closer as the tide was coming in

[Chorus:]
But then why, what could I say?
What would it mean?
Cause then I, I'd give away
All the love I feel
Just a child, I was waiting
On the line, he elevated
He stayed put while I was wandering
Count so long he started wondering
Why, I got lost

My brother taught me how to give
He spilt his love until it stretches too thin
Oh how I wanna be like him
He takes away the weight before your heart gives in

[Chorus]

If I love the way my brother loves
None of it would happen like the way that it was

[Chorus]
