[Verse 1]
Am I lost out here?
Or am I waking up to be your man?
It's the weight you fear
Oh, I'll try my best to understand, yeah
[Chorus]
Oh, wash my sorrows away
The water's kinda warm in the evening
Take away my tears and it's healing
Wash my sorrows away
Like we were vibing at the beach in the summer
Where I can be free to recover
Oh, ooh, oh
[Verse 2]
Regretting every second I wasn't
Sharing my time with you
It doesn't matter why they're calling
You're the only thing to losе
I'm forgetting why we can't get back
It's driving mе insane
It only matters when you're calling
You're the only thing I choose
[Chorus]
Oh, wash my sorrows away
The water's kinda warm in the evening
Take away my tears and it's healing
Wash my sorrows away
Like we were vibing at the beach in the summer
Where I can be free to recover
Oh, wash my sorrows away
The water's kinda warm in the evening
Take away my tears and it's healing
(Take away my tears, yeah, yeah)
Wash my sorrows away (Oh)
Like we were vibing at the beach in the summer
Where I can be free to recover
[Outro]
You know I try
To keep myself out of mind
And you know I try
But I still keep you inside
And I try to keep myself from what's wrong
But this ain't right
How can it be right?
How can I be right?
Oh

Everyone has tough times and we all have our own ways of dealing with sadness, and this song tells what it’s like for me when I’m in those situations.
If I’m ever having a tough time I like to go home and get into the ocean, whether it’s surfing or just diving under for a few seconds, it helps me g...
Matt played these chords, and I was like, “Let’s write a heartbreak song.” I don’t normally write about love or things like that. I’ve never really been heartbroken by a girl before, so I really channelled my bad-teenager part of me. That was the inspiration for “Wash My Sorrows Away.” And I guess i...
