Dolphin Lyrics by Poe

Hello

1995

There's a broken beam inside of the big, big bridge
I guess that whole thing is caving in
Maybe it is time I learn how to swim

I'll be a dolphin
I'll be a dolphin

Sometimes I think I'm breaking down
And other times I think that I'm fine
But something got into my engine, it slowed me down
Now I gotta turn this whole thing around

I'm gonna be a dolphin, gonna be a dolphin
I'm gonna be a dolphin, gonna be a dolphin

There's not a lot I believe anymore
I mistrust everything I had been longing for
There's not a lot that I know anymore
But I know if a good bridge is burning

You gotta be a dolphin, you gotta be a dolphin
You gotta be a dolphin, you gotta be a dolphin

Sometimes I think you're crazy and sick
And other times I think you're so fine
But I know I'm in danger 'cause you feel like a stranger
And I know that something's gonna give

When I dive into that ocean
God I hope I don't sink like a stone, no
I'm gonna move in like a dolphin

There may be a lot I don't know about you
But I know if I don't swim I'm already drowning
'Cause a broken bridge is a broken bridge
Is a broken bridge, so I swim to you now

Oh, here I come, oh, here I come
Oh, here I come, oh, here I come, I'll be a dolphin

There's a broken beam inside of the big, big bridge
I guess that this time I'll have to swim
I'll swim, I'll swim, I'll swim
