That’s when I make the wish, to swim away with the fish
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I feel like I’m drowning
Next to you in Malibu
Do we even exist?
And sometimes I get so scared of what I can’t understand
Next to you
Next to you
You would explain the current, as I just smile
The sky’s more blue in Malibu
And I wanna thank you with all of my heart
Hoping that you’ll stay the same, and nothing will change
I never came to the beach, or stood by the ocean
I never went boatin’, don’t get how they are floatin’
I’d spent the rest of my life standing here talking
I’d be here writing this song
[Verse 2]
But here I am, next to you
‘Cause now I’m as free as birds catching the wind
I never sat by the shore, under the sun with my feet in the sand
[Chorus]
But here I am, next to you
We are just like the waves that flow back and forth
I never would’ve believed you if three years ago you told me

A dream come true in Malibu
Next to you
Next to you
[Chorus]
‘Cause it’s supposed to be this hot all summer long
I always thought I would sink, so I never swam
We watched the sun go down as we were walking
It’s a brand new start

And you’re there to save me

The sky is so blue in Malibu
The sky’s so blue in Malibu
Next to you in Malibu
But you brought me here and I’m happy that you did
[Outro]
And it’ll be us, just for a while
