                Em  D
He dropped the bait
         C                    G
Into the ocean of the summer love
And now he waits
For the moment I've been dreaming of
A clean slate
On the heart of which he desecrates
It's too late for me now

Chorus:
                      Em                 D
I said I want to roll over but I got to lean back
              C                  G
Give it some time so that I can relax
I'm outta my mind, I'm 'bout to have a relapse
Oh, how I'm sinking in

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Oh, how I'm sinking in

I lie awake
Watching every memory replay
Counting my mistakes
The clock is ticking, eating me away
For your own sake
Stop your giving and begin to take
While I ache for you now

Chorus:
I said I want to roll over but I got to lean back
Give it some time so that I can relax
I'm outta my mind, I'm 'bout to have a relapse
Oh how I'm sinking in

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Oh, how I'm sinking in
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Oh, how I'm sinking in

If only you could understand me
But you don't, you won't, I need you to
After all this time
I wait around for you and I, oh
Yeah

Chorus:
I said I want to roll over but I got to lean back
Give it some time so that I can relax
I'm outta my mind, I'm 'bout to have a relapse
Oh how I'm sinking in
I said I want to roll over but I got to lean back
Give it some time so that I can relax
I'm outta my mind, I'm 'bout to have a relapse
Oh how I'm sinking in

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Oh, how I'm sinking in
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Oh, how I'm sinking in
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Oh, how I'm sinking in
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Oh, how I'm sinking in
