First she said she liked my style of music
Said she really liked my car
Said, have you been to Hollywood and do you know some movie stars?
All the time she's talking to me
She's looking 'round to see
If there is anybody more important here than me

I'm looking for a deeper well to sink in.
A haven for my heart to dwell, I'm thinking
Love should be a river that floods into the sea

[Chorus]
Shallow so shallow is this all there is?
Shallow so shallow there must be more than this.

But I'm a walking contradiction
Point the finger back at me
I should probably read a book but I like watching MTV
Getting caught up in the feeding frenzy
I wonder will it ever stop?
But put it there in front of me I guarantee I'm gonna watch.

I'm looking for a deeper well to sink in
A haven for my heart to dwell, I'm thinking
Isn't it ironic I feel like I could drown.

[Chorus]

I'm looking for a deeper well to sink in
A haven for my heart to dwell, I'm thinking
Love should be a river that floods into the sea.

[Chorus]

Shallow so shallow so shallow so shallow
Shallow so shallow so shallow so shallow
Shallow so shallow so shallow so shallow
