Swim Lyrics

[Verse]
You said we'd do this life together
You told me nothing's gonna change
Well, funny, change is hard to measure
When you get so used to the pain

[Pre-Chorus]
But something feels wrong, I don't know what it is
If I'm the problem, just tell me what I did
Everything's different, you just don't wanna talk (Oh)
I feel the distance every time that I call

[Chorus]
You used to
You used to
Oh, the way you look at me has changed
And you won't let me in
So can you tell me how, tell me how
Tell me, how did it come to this?
(Oh, oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
But something feels wrong, I don't know what it is (Is)
If I'm thе problem, just tell me what I did
Evеrything's different, you just don't wanna talk (Talk)
I feel the distance every time that I call
[Chorus]
You used to wipe my tears away
Now all I do is swim (You just let it ring)
Oh, the way you look at me has changed
And you won't let me in (Swim)
Oh, the way you look at me has changed
And you won't let me in (Won't let me in, won't let me in)
So can you tell me how, tell me how
Tell me, how did it come to this? (Oh)
Oh, you used to answer straight away
Now you just let it ring (You just let it ring)
You used to wipe my tears away
Now all I do is swim (Swim)
Oh, the way you look at me has changed
And you won't let me in (Won't let me in, won't let me in)
So can you tell me how, tell me how
Tell me, how did it come to this? (Oh)
(Oh, oh)

[Post-Chorus]
You used to answer straight away
You used to wipe my tears away
(Oh, oh)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Answer

MK:

Becky Hill; that’s my homie. We got history!! When she reached out over the summer to make ‘Swim’ into a club banger, I jumped at it.
