Sink Or Swim Lyrics

If you use your hands, I’ll pull your body close
Tell you to take a stand
You then make a choice
It gets turned around, too soon
Tides get flooded with, the room

Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim?
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?
Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim?
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?

Our love is on the line
Now that you're leaving town
I thought of you as mine, but now I’ve lost my voice
It gets turned way down, too soon
Tides get flooded with, the room

Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim?
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?
Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim?
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?

Ooooooooo, moon rising
Ooooooooo, moon rising
Ooooooooo, moon rising
Ooooooooo, moon rising
Ooooooooo, moon rising

Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim?
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?
Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim?
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?

Weathervanes (In the Way)

If you use your hands, I’ll pull your body close
Tell you to take a stand 
You then make a choice 
It gets turned around, too soon 
Tides get flooded with, the room
 
Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim? 
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer? 
Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim? 
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?
 
Our love is on the line 
Now that you're leaving town 
I thought of you as mine, but now I’ve lost my voice 
It gets turned way down, too soon 
Tides get flooded with, the room
 
Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim? 
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?
Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim? 
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?
 
Ooooooooo, moon rising 
Ooooooooo, moon rising 
Ooooooooo, moon rising 
Ooooooooo, moon rising 
Ooooooooo, moon rising
 
Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim? 
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?
Will we sink, will we sink, will we sink or swim? 
Can you save this summer? Can you save this summer?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
