Riptide by Vance Joy http://www.vancejoy.com/
also known as James Keogh, is a singer-songwriter from Melbourne, Australia. “Riptide” has been climbing the charts and went triple platinum in Australia. Riptide is on his debut album "Dream Your Life Away" and is a stream of consciousness song about a relationship that is going under.

As a woman singing a man's song, I changed the lyrics so the gender flipped. Also, as with any cover, I tried to make it my own using piano and more of a funk drum beat.
Here are the original lyrics:
I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green
You're the magician's assistant in their dream
Oh, and they come unstuck
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
There's this movie that I think you'll like
This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City
This cowboy's running from himself
And she's been living on the highest shelf
Oh, and they come unstuck
Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you're singing that song
And I got a lump in my throat
'Cause you're gonna sing the words wrong
