Tras 5 largos años de espera, hoy, 19 de septiembre, Avril Lavigne ha lanzado Head Above Water, el primer single del que será su sexto álbum de estudio.
A continuación os dejamos la letra de esta canción, inspirada en los momentos más crudos a los que la canadiense se tuvo que enfrentar cuando aún no le habían diagnosticado la enfermedad del Lyme.
I’ve gotta keep the calm before the storm
I don’t want less
I don’t want more
Must bar the windows and the doors
To keep me safe to keep me warmYeah, my life is what I’m fighting for
Can’t part the sea
Can’t reach the shore
And my voice becomes the driving force
I won’t let this pull me overboardGod, keep my head above water
Don’t let me drown
It gets harder
I’ll meet you there, at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drownSo pull me up from down below
‘Cause I’m underneath the undertow
Come dry me off and hold me close
I need you now, I need you mostGod, keep my head above water
Don’t let me drown
It gets harder
I’ll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown
Keep my head above water above waterAnd I can’t see in the stormy weather
I can’t seem to keep it all together
And I can’t swim the ocean like this forever
And I can’t breatheGod, keep my head above water
I lose my breath at the bottom
Come rescue me
I’ll be waiting
I’m too young to fall asleepGod, keep my head above water
Don’t let me drown
It gets harder
I’ll meet you there at the altar
As I fall down to my knees
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown
Don’t let me drown
Keep my head above water above water
