[Intro: Chris Brown]
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
[Verse 1: Chris Brown]
You say I'm not giving enough
But, baby girl, I'm trying so hard to
Keep up when you fear
That I'ma always leave you lonely
[Refrain: Chris Brown]
But you'll see
That I want us to last forever
And my heart stays open
Darling, you know it will get better
[Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown]
But you know this shit won't happen overnight
We just gotta give love a try
And when you look beside you
Girl, I'll be there
[Chorus: Chris Brown & Kevin McCall, Chris Brown]
When it rains down your face
Tell me, where do the tears end up?
Don't wanna drown in the rivers of your sorrow
And I, I will swim a thousand miles
Just for one minute to see you smile (Yeah)
So I'm treading water, treading water
Please don't cry 'cause you're drowning me
[Post-Chorus: Chris Brown]
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
[Verse 2: Chris Brown]
What do you say?
What do you mean that you blame me?
Why is it today that you're doubtin' me?
That I'ma always leave you lonely
[Refrain: Chris Brown]
But you'll see
That I want us to last forever
And my heart stays open
Darling, you know it will get better
[Pre-Chorus: Chris Brown]
But you know this shit won't happen overnight
We just gotta give love a try
And when you look beside you
Girl, I'll be there
[Chorus: Chris Brown & Kevin McCall, Chris Brown]
When it rains down your face
Tell me, where do the tears end up? (Tell me where does the tears end up)
Don't wanna drown in the rivers of your sorrow (Oh, no)
And I, I will swim a thousand miles
Just for one minute to see you smile (Yeah)
So I'm treading water, treading water (Oh)
Please don't cry 'cause you're drowning me
[Outro: Chris Brown]
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh
