Well I'm stuck in a dilemma
Of a quite important era
Do I do what I love, or don't?
Over the course of a life time
People change their jobs like ten times
Is there a secret manual I don't hold?
Because well, being an artist
Means always being honest
And I don't wanna take that vow
Decades will probably pass by
Is it ok if I stand by?
I'm sorry I just rather sing along
Why do I
Keep swimming by your side
Why do I
Keep fading by your side
Why do I
Keep swimming by your side
Why do I
Keep fading by your side
Looking up north but loving the south
We can travel both while we figure it out
Overthinking every intention of life
Feeling like fame while living without
And people with fortune get to play games
People with hopes get a grip on their dreams
You can never dream too much
No you can never dream too much
Why do I
Keep swimming by your side
Why do I
Keep fading by your side
Why do I
Keep swimming by your side
Why do I
Keep fading by your side
My mama told me when I was young
It is your path that shall be done
Now I'm afraid to let her down
So you can lay it all down
Saying this is meant to be
Lately I can't hear that voice in me
I'm so afraid to let her down
I'm gonna lay it all down
Why do I
Keep swimming by your side
Why do I
Keep fading by your side
Why do I
Keep swimming by your side
Why do I
Keep fading by your side
Why do I
Keep swimming (Keep swimming)
Why do I
Keep fading by your side
Why do I
Keep swimming by your side
Why do I
Keep fading by your side
(Keep swimming, keep swimming...)
