Deep Water Songtext
von Betty Wright

Sometimes you bite off more than you can chew
I did one day
So let this be a lesson to you

I went swimmin′
But the water was too deep
There ain't a-soul
Around to rescue me
There must have been some, some kind of warning sign
I had my eyes wide open and couldn′t see
Well, maybe baby I've gone blind

Well, I'm in deep water now (Deep water now)
I gotta get back to safety somehow
Oh, I better backstroke, backstroke
I′m tired of getting my heart broke
Oh, I′m in deep water now (In too deep)
Ooh, so deep (So deep)
Too deep (Too deep)


So good lookin', ooh
I had to try it and see
I got took in
Now no one can save me but me (Save me, save me)
No I did not see no kind of danger sign
I thought with my heart
This one thought and that was to make you mine

Well, I′m in deep water now (Deep water now)
I gotta get back to land somehow
Oh, I wonder can I backstroke, backstroke, yeah
I'm tired of getting my heart broke
Well, I′m in deep water now (In too deep)
Mhm, so deep (So deep)
Too deep (Too deep)

I thought that I had the strength and the will
To keep some sort of pride
But your love gave me a chill, ow
I know why I miss it 'cause I can measure
Ain′t no need in no one woman
Drowning in, in so much pleasure

Oh, I'm in deep water now (Deep water now)
Oh, I just got to get back somehow
Ooh, said I'm in deep water now (In too deep)
Too deep
So deep (So deep)
Too deep (Too deep)


I′m in deep water now (Deep water now)
I gotta make it back to safety somehow
Ooh, I′m in deep water now (In too deep)
Ooh, so deep (So deep)
Too deep (Too deep)
