Fergal Edward - Barriers Lyrics

I'll swim forever in an ocean of my dreams
I'll visit every little cove
And find the water that supports my every need
And I'll wait there for you, i'll be waiting for you

I see some friends and they are gasping out for air
I see them drift so far away
This fear of ageing makes us timid and despair
But I won't hang my head, i'll silence the dread

And i've been a fool in love
I have put up barriers
Thinking I was better off alone
But I didn't realise
Someone could help me find my way
Although i never tried

But there comes a breaking point, one of no return
You're looking down a one way road
But ain't this easier than all that dithering?
Where you can move on, and you can explode

And i've been a fool in love
I have put up barriers
Thinking I was better off alone
But I didn't realise
Someone could help me find my way
Although i never tried

Something broke in me
When I was seventeen
And ever since
I've been trying to fill it in

And i've been a fool in love
I have put up barriers
Thinking I was better off alone
But I didn't realise
Someone could help me find my way
Although i never tried
