I’ll Jump Scott Burkell and Paul Loesel (Ft. Brian D'Arcy James)

When I was a kid
Just a skinny kid
We would summer at the shore
Since I was afraid
I only would wade
To waist high and nothing more
Never over my head
But choosing instead
To see the bottom below
I was safe, I was sound
Feet on the ground
No threat from the undertow

But one day this boy who was older
Threw me over his sun-burnt shoulder
And to my surprise and my shock
Tossed me off of the end of the dock

And I swear
Fear replaced with the thrilling taste
I'd not soon forget
What a crime to waste more time
And never get wet!
So I vowed to the blue skies above
Next time I won't need a shove
I'll jump!
I'll jump
