Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
Your drums, we're drumming, your drums

You can't say that I'm going nowhere
Cause you don't know where I'm coming from
And you can't say that I'm going nowhere
When I have been trying to reach you for so long

Your drums, we're drumming, your drums

Friends say I've got something wrong
Cause I've been trying to reach you for so long
For so long, I've tried
To reach you baby, don't you know that

I've been treading water for your love
Whether I sink or swim, it's you I'm thinking of
I've been treading water for your love
As my light grows dim
Maybe you're not strong enough boy

Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
Your drums, we're drumming, your drums

I can't say why I'm going nowhere
This feeling goes on and on
I can't say that I'm going somewhere
When I've been failing to reach you for so long

For so long, I've tried
To reach you baby, don't you know that

I've been treading water for your love
Whether I sink or swim, it's you I'm thinking of
I've been treading water for your love
As my light grows dim
Maybe you're not strong enough boy

Maybe all along (all along)
I've been holding on (holding on)
To the promise that you need some time
Making everything into a story
Making sure I never get to feel happy
Taking everything you do my own way
Thinking that you're begging me please

I've been treading water for your love,
Whether I sink or swim, it's you I'm thinking of
I've been treading water for your love
As my light goes dim,
Maybe you're not strong enough boy

Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
Your drums, we're drumming, your drums
