At your bidding I fell fifty feet into salt water I scrambled to hold on or be lost forever You said it was for my own sake And watched as I was swallowed in the wake (Chorus) I knew at once but still I'm so surprised You threw that stone and it skipped a million times How was I supposed to know I would end up in the undertow? A weave of rope was hanging off the back of this freight liner So I could catch myself and crawl up inside her I woke and I was alive Before I knew if I had survived Chorus I'll learn to forgive mistakes And be forgiven for the ones I've made I'll learn to forgive mistakes And be forgiven for the ones I've made Chorus
