[Verse 1]
I've been falling much more deep than I wanna
I’ve been wishing I could breathe underwater
I hold my breath
I can't see what comes next
I don't know when
I’ll see dry land again

[Chorus]
Another 40 days, I'm lost at sea
I'm just gonna swim until you love me
Hopin' that your heart will rescue me
I'm just gonna swim until you love me
Swim until you love me
Swim, swim, swim
Swim until you love me
Swim, swim, swim

[Verse 2]
I've been drowning in these sheets, feeling lonely
Wishing you were here with me, every morning
Over my head
The tide comes rolling in
I don't know when
I'll see dry land again

[Chorus]
Another 40 days, I’m lost at sea
I’m just gonna swim until you love me
Hopin' that your heart will rescue me
I’m just gonna swim until you love me
Swim until you love me
Swim, swim, swim
Swim until you love me
Swim, swim, swim

[Bridge]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
I will never get over you

[Chorus]
Another 40 days, I'm lost at sea
I'm just gonna swim until you love me
Hopin' that your heart will rescue me (Hey, hey)
I’m just gonna swim until you love me (Hey, hey)
Swim until you love me (Hey, hey)
Swim, swim, swim (Hey, hey)
Swim until you love me (Hey, hey)
Swim, swim, swim (Hey, hey)

[Outro]
I will never get over you

Alec Benjamin

After getting dropped by Columbia Records at 18 years old, singer-songwriter Alec Benjamin built a following by playing in parking lots outside of Shawn Mendes and Troye Sivan concerts. The Phoenix, Arizona native caught the attention of Jon Bellion, earning a songwriting credit on Bellion’s debut album and later joined him on tour.

To build on the momentum, Benjamin began uploading new songs to his YouTube channel at a rapid clip and eventually earned on a viral hit with “I Built a Friend” and a deal with Atlantic Records.

Benjamin connects to listeners by incorporating using his life struggles to tell stories and give meaning to his songs. You can see this in “Let Me Down Slowly,” “Paper Crown,” “I Built a Friend,” “Death of a Hero,” and “If We Have Each Other.”
