Avril Lavigne Head Above Water Lyrics

Avril Lavigne - Head Above Water
2018 album "Head Above Water"

[Verse 1]
I've gotta keep the calm before the storm
I don't want less, I don't want more
Must bar the windows and the doors
To keep me safe, to keep me warm

[Verse 2]
Yeah, my life is what I'm fighting for
Can't bar the sea, can't reach the shore
And my voice becomes the driving force
I won't let this put me overboard

[Chorus]
God, keep my head above water
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
I'll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don't let me drown, drown, drown
Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown

[Verse 3]
So pull me up from down below
Cause I'm underneath the undertow
Come dry me off and hold me close
I need you now, I need you most

[Chorus]
God, keep my head above water
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
I'll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees Don't let me drown, drown, drown
Don't let me, don't let me don't let me drown
Don't let me drown, drown, drown
And keep my head above water, above water
( Don't let me, don't let me, don't let me drown)

[Bridge]
And I can't see in the stormy weather
I can't seem to keep it all together
And I - I can't swim the ocean like this forever
And I can't breathe

[Refrain]
God, keep my head above water
I lose my breath at the bottom
Come rescue me, I'll be waiting
I'm too young to fall asleep

[Chorus]
God, keep my head above water
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
I'll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees

[Outro]
Don't let me drown (drown, drown)
Don't let me drown (don't let me, don't let me drown)
Don't let me drown (drown, drown)
And keep my head above water, above water
(Don't let me, don't let me drown)
