Smooth Waters Lyrics

I know you've been hiding your face from me

Ever since I found out the truth

And I know that I'll find my place somewhere

Even if it's not with you

We fooled ourselves into thinking

That our lives could be so much different

If we put aside all of our past

And went out without our life rafts

And we fooled ourselves and everyone else

And I even fooled myself

Ooh

And what fools we were

To think

Our ship could sail

Over smooth waters

Over smooth waters

Over smooth waters

Ooh

You thought everything would be fine someday

That I could just forgive and let go

But the ocean doesn't let you just walk away

Without pulling you down below

We set across the ocean wide

And I let go of all my pride

And now I'm stranded on this island

Without anywhere to go

And I know we all make mistakes

But I didn't know it'd lead to heartbreak

Ooh no

And what fools we were

To think

Our ship could sail

Over smooth waters

Over smooth waters

Over smooth waters

Ooh

You took my map so I can't find my way back home

Now I'm left feeling so vulnerable

Why'd you have to run away from me

And all the promises we made to each other

All sinking now you're in the arms of another

Did they ever mean anything?

What fools we were

To think

Our ship could sail

Over smooth waters

Over smooth waters

Over smooth waters

Ooh

Over smooth waters
