Lyrics (Start at 0:08):

I got caught in the undertow
Tried to ride a wave got pulled below
Couldn’t bring myself to wave my hands
Cuz I thought they could see me from the sand

Now don’t get me wrong
I know someone has been there all along
But that’s just how I’ve been feeling
All the time

Don’t get caught in the undertow
Move quick it’ll take you out

The more you try to hide them away
The stronger they become every day
The further that you drift in the dark
Connections break and you fall apart
Now, I know

Ah, ah
You’re gonna need somebody, need somebody
Ah, ah
You’re gonna need somebody, need somebody

Name all of your troubles all of your discontents
Call them out for it
They’re not friends
Don’t let them take your wave
til you drown

I don’t know, but I’ve been told, come on
Come on, you know what they say about the undertow
Get swept out
Get swept below
And if you don’t make it up
You won’t make it home

But now don’t get me wrong
I know someone has been there all along
But that’s just how I’ve been feeling
All the time

Don’t get caught in the undertow
Move quick it’ll take you out

The more you try to hide them away
The stronger they become every day
The further that you drift in the dark
Connections break and you fall apart
Now, I know

Ah, ah
You’re gonna need somebody, need somebody
Ah, ah
You’re gonna need somebody, need somebody
You’re gonna need somebody, need somebody
