Standing at the edge of the diving board
Tempted to jump right in
I chicken out and turn away
Step back into the shallow end
That is all I've known
Deep water is a mystery
Chorus
Do you think I could swim?
To the other side
Drenched in the deepness
I see it all the time
Verse 2
I suppose I could be in the kiddie pool
Without a need to move
My growth would never come
But I just haven't learned how to dive
That is all I've known
Deep water is a mystery
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
You are my Instructor
Today
Six, eight, the the twelve foot
I pray
If you think I can make it
Like I've seen others do
I just might try that diving board again
Repeat Chorus
