Hold his breath   And swim instead of sinking to the floor   We're not forever more this time   You leave behind the vastness of the sea   Returning without me      In my songs we're still at home   Trading limbs and jokes   And zapping through the shows      I have my head in the arching of your back   In here I'm safer from all the tragic facts      From snowy scapes to southern states   I've turned to make you see   That you will carry me      In your ambulance   Cause you save me all the time   You're my ambulance      But I tried too hard   I failed to make an honest man last   I failed in letting history pass   I failed with every voyage I tried   So long, I hope it's worth it   But I tried too hard      You're my ambulance   Cause you save me all the time   You're my ambulance
