Description
This is one that's been brewing for a while and has undergone several major revisions. The chorus was written long before the rest and my original idea was for it to be much more pop with a much harder edge, but, as often happens, the tune had its own idea of where it wanted to go. A little of the edge is still there in parts, but nothing like it was.
I've been anxious to get this one done, so I finally got my cold under wraps enough to record the vocals and, actually, I think it helped me, especially on the harmony, because I had to really rethink those parts because I couldn't hit the notes I wanted.
Enjoy.

Lyrics
The Deep End
©2007 Joseph Gurner
She takes her time again
As she walks across the room
knowing my eyes
are on her
She smiles and talks to him
looking back at me
hoping that I will
sit and slowly burn
You come and go in this world
holding on to your dream
Every smile takes you down
tears cuts you like a scream
You jump into the water
and try to swim away
but the undertow catches you
and you have to stay
in the deep end
(All this time we try to swim away)
in the deep end
(All this time we try to swim away)
She takes her time again
As she climbs into our bed
Waiting for my hands
to touch her skin
She smiles as she whispers
and we breathe the same breath
She knows I
slowly burn for her
You come and go in this wworld
with nothing but your dreams
Every kiss takes you higher
Every touch is like a dream
You jump into the water
and try to swim away
but the undertow catches you
and you have to stay
in the deep end
(All this time we try to swim away)
in the deep end
(All this time we try to swim away)
Think of all the days
you drown me in your eyes
Think of all the nights
We roll up in our lies
We tell each other
Love is just taht way
We love in the dark
And hate in the day
You jump into the water
and try to swim away
but the undertow catches you
and you have to stay
in the deep end
(All this time we try to swim away)
in the deep end
(All this time we try to swim away)
She takes her time again
as she walks away from me
‘knowing I’ll be here
when she comes home
