ALICIA KEYS LYRICS - Like The Sea

"Like The Sea"



[Chorus:]

Love is like the sea

Leaves you on your knees

Then it pulls you in

Then it takes you, takes you

Over, over

Love is like the sea

Leaves you on your knees

First you're floating high

Then takes you takes you

Under under



Well it's cold

Cold under water

In the night time

But I dove

Dove to the bottom

To see what I'd find



That's when I saw a light

A glowing paradise

Thought I'd stay a while

It's been calling me underwater, child

Everything that I ever dreamed



Taking my breath away

Currents got hold of me

Sweeping me away

Wish that I could stay

Takes me to the top

It's the cycle that never stops



Love is like the sea

Leaves you on your knees

Then it pulls you in

Then it takes you, takes you

Over, over

Love is like the sea

Leaves you on your knees

First you're floating high

Then takes you takes you

Under under



(takes you takes you over)

(takes you takes you under)

(takes you takes you over)

Over!

(takes you takes you under)



Say:



I've been told

Told you only find it once in a lifetime

So you better hold

Hold on stronger then ever

Like it's the last time



So when you see the light

Like a ship in the night

You have found the place

You been looking for

Like a distant shore

Don't you ever look back again



Here's something you should know (know)

The sea is still in control ([spoken:] that's right)

Cherish everyday

Cause you never know

It can take away

The very thing that you love the most (love the most)



Love is like the sea

Leaves you on your knees

Then it pulls you in

Then it takes you, takes you (takes you, takes you over)

Over, over

Love is like the sea

Leaves you on your knees (leaves you on your knees)

First you're floating high

Then takes you takes you (takes you, takes you under)

Under under



(takes you takes you over) oh

(takes you takes you under)

(takes you takes you over) so far

(takes you takes you under)

Listen, love is like the sea yeah



(takes you takes you over)

(takes you takes you under) can you feel the pull?

(takes you takes you over) it's calling you

(takes you takes you under)



Love is like the sea

Leaves you on your knees

Then it pulls you in

(if you ever felt this way before)

Then it takes you, takes you

Over, (then you know)

Over

Love is like the sea

Leaves you on your knees

First you're floating high

(oh get down on your knees)

Then it takes you takes you

Under under

(take me away)
