It's not romantic here in blue
A9
Swimming, swimming in blue

You left me lonely and confused

Question, questioning you

So soon goodbye you stole my heart

I'm believing you

Was it a lie right from the start

Answer, answer me do...
(Chorus)

Well now my body's weak - so just give me a reason
And my make-up's off - so just give me a reason
And my defense's down - so just give me a reason

Waiting, waiting for you
It takes a weak heart to forget
Follow, follow it through

So what's a girl like me to do
Drowning, drowning in you
And who's to save me from the blue
Carry, carry me through

Cause now my body's weak - so just give me a reason
And my make-up's off - so just give me a reason
And my defense's down - so just give me a reason
I am strong enough - so just give me a reason
Now my body's weak - so just give me a reason
And my make-up's off - so just give me a reason
My defense's down - so just give me a reason
Give me a reason
Give me a reason
