lyrics

Well I thought I could swim I was sure of it
But the whole sea gobbled me up
And now I'm inside of it, can't get out of it
Wonder what'll come of me now



So I bought me a steam boat, big and strong
I bought it to carry me home
But it crashed and burned and then I learned
I was meant to ramble and roam

Oh why, oh why
Why, oh why
Why's it gotta be so hard
When you think you can swim but you never win
And home is always way too far

And then I met you and a different tune
My heart began to sing
And there's no explaining it, no describing it
But when I'm with you I feel home

So think of me dear when you roam around
I'll be roaming and rambling, too
And when we're together, we'll have fine weather
As sure as the sky is blue

I know, I know
No need to tell me so
Sometimes it might be so hard
But it's more fun to swim when you jump right in
With the one you love wherever you are
