Poolside (feat. Lydia Clowes)

Think I got a new philosophy,
I wanna dive right in,
I hear the water calling out to me,
But I don't think I know how to swim.

And when I'm standing on the precipice
I can't seem to take a step,
Some days I wonder why I'm doing this,
So much easier to love regret,

I've been stuck on the poolside
Trying just to get by
Been waiting a long time
Just to know
What it would feel like
Letting go of the sidelines
To be where the sun lights up the road
But the poolside's all I know

I want you to know the best of me
But the masquerade is wearing thin
I think of all the things I wanna be
But they're all false starts cause I can't begin.

I've been stuck on the poolside
Trying just to get by
Been waiting a long time
Just to know
What it would feel like
Letting go of the sidelines
To be where the sun lights up the road
But the poolside's all I know

My love if I jumped in
Would you save me from drowning
Is it too much to ask dear
I need to know, I need to know you'll be here.
My love if I jumped in
Would you save me from drowning
Is it too much to ask dear
I need to know, I need to know you'll be here.

Stuck on the poolside
Trying just to get by
Been waiting a long time
Just to know
What it would feel like
Letting go of the sidelines
To be where the sun lights up the road
But the poolside's all I know
