If I fell in a lake

Would you dive in or stand there and gape
G A
And if I drowned, would you jump
D
Or would you let the water burst in my lungs
[Chorus 1]

Well a stranger on the street
D G
Maybe the only one on his knees

When your laying by the roadside

Waiting for a friend to come

Got my hopes

Got my doubts
