[Verse 1]
I wanna see what you see in me
And never let you down
Can you still feel my love?
I walked away from the piece of me
A dying ghost in an old machine
Oh please, don't cry, my love

[Pre-Chorus]
I was a blind man chasing shadows
It was a cold hair man I'd known
Wherever you go I will follow
Like an orphan running home

[Chorus]
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart

[Verse 2]
I had a dream you were next to me
I woke up calling your name
Can you still feel my love?
I wanna be something you can touch
You're moving fast, but I'm catching up
No don't slow down, my love

[Pre-Chorus]
I was a blind man chasing shadows
It was a cold hair man I'd known
Wherever you go I will follow
Like an orphan running home

[Chorus]
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart

[Bridge]
Let the water rise
Let the water rise
Let the water take me under
Let the water rise
Let the water rise
Let the water take me under
I believe in the flood you opened
I believe it can save me now
I believe when the door was closing
You broke it down
You broke it down

[Chorus]
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart
You're the flood, you're the flood, you're the flood that opened my heart

The Goo Goo Dolls

The Goo Goo Dolls are an American rock band formed in 1986 in Buffalo, NY, during one of Buffalo’s most prolific underground music phases. The band was formed by John Rzeznik (Also known as Johnny Rzeznik), lead singer and songwriter for the band, with bassist/vocalist Robby Takac, and drummer George Tutuska. Mike Malinin later replaced Tutuska as the band’s drummer.

The band has released twelve studio albums between 1986 and 2017, but they are best known for platinum-selling A Boy Named Goo (1995) and Dizzy Up the Girl (1998). These mid- to late 1990s albums contain the Goo Goo Dolls' biggest hits to date – Name and Iris most notably, but also Slide, Black Balloon, and Dizzy

These hits made the Goo Goo Dolls a household name for radio-friendly “prom night power balladry” (as one Rolling Stone review put it), but the band’s early output was often far rougher musically, melding the band’s edgier punk influences with an often soft sensibility in the mold of the band’s early heroes, The Replacements. One can hear these influences on many songs on A Boy Named Goo though these affinities would fade after Dizzy Up the Girl.
