Tundra

I called in sick to the bathtub today
Somebody pulled the plug on me
So I gathered up my skirts half way to the sink
Made a bubble bath towel
I bought at Jo-Ann Fabrics

Oh you held me like a tundra
Shifting blocks of ice
Pulling us under
Come a little closer
You're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out

I used to watch the weather channel twice a week
Make visually, calculations of the water levels rising
But since my basin emptied
I can't bear to look at it.
Disaster is as disaster does
And it doesn't like forecasting

Oh you held me like a tundra
Shifting blocks of ice
Pulling us under
Come a little closer
You're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out.

You didn't have to tell me,
Or even say her name
The evidence was plainly written by the expression on your face
It ain't intuition, it ain't ESP
I could even tell when you were making love to me.

Oh you held me like a tundra
Shifting blocks of ice
Pulling us under
Come a little closer
You're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out
The water gets deeper the further we drift out
And it's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad 'cause we knew it all along

Oh you held me like a tundra
Shifting blocks of ice
Pulling us under
Come a little closer
You're in for a long haul
Because the water gets deeper the further we drift out
The water gets deeper the further we drift out
The water gets deeper and soon our love will drown
