Shallow Waters

(album: The Interchange - 1991)

I lost my heart on love's waters
They were warm as summer gold
When the sunlight gave way to the moonlight
I was swimming so naked and cold

They say still waters run deep
I find that hard to believe
I fell as easy as I fall asleep
I guess I wore my heart on my sleeve

And if you fall in love in a heartbeat
Lose your head at the touch of her hand
You can easily drown in shallow waters
Within easy reach of dry land

They said to beware of the riptide
When the sky above was so blue
But I found I was caught in a landslide
It was too late to turn back from you

I heard that no man is an island
But I never heeded the tale
When you reached out and touched me like a child
I guess I wore my heart on my sail

And if you fall in love in a heartbeat
Lose your head at the touch of her hand
You can easily drown in shallow waters
Within easy reach of dry land

You can easily drown in shallow waters
Within easy reach of dry land
