Goin' Down for the Third Time Songtext
von Phoebe Snow

I′m going down, down for the third time
I'm going down for the third time
Drowning in tears from a heart that′s hurting
Drowning in tears from a love that's uncertain
I'm lost without your love in a sea of emptiness
The love we knew is being washed away
Don′t think I can last, my heart is sinking fast

I′m going down for the third time
Trying to hold on to a love that's dying
Drowning in a love that keeps me grieving
Drowning in the feeling that my arms are leaving
Bring back that love we knew and let me live again
A little tenderness for me start showing
And my heart will fill up ′til it's overflowing


Like a ship all alone on a raging sea
You got me tossing and turning and I can′t get free
Reach out your hand to me and save what's left of our love
I′ll forgive your lies and alibis
If you'll wipe my crying eyes

I'm going down for the third time
So won′t you save this heart of mine?
I loved you long, I loved you strong
Now little boy, you know you′re doing me wrong

Come on and save me
Come on and save me
Save me, save me
Don't let it drown, drown, drown, drown, drown
I′m drowning
I'm going down, down, down, down, down
Don′t let it drown, drown, drown, drown, drown
