Going Down For The Third Time – Phoebe Snow

Save me, save me

I’m goin’ down, down for the third time
I’m goin’ down, down for the third time
Drownin’ in tears from my heart that’s hurtin’
Drownin’ in tears from a love that’s uncertain

I’m lost without your love in a sea of emptiness
The love we knew is bein’ washed away
Don’t think I can last, my heart is sinkin’ fast

I’m goin’ down, down for the third time
Tryin’ to hold on to a love that’s dyin’
Drownin’ in the love that keeps me grievin’
Drownin’ in the fear that my arms you’re leavin’

Bring back that love we knew
Darlin’ let me live again
A little tenderness to me start showin’
And my heart will fill up till it’s overflowin’

I’m like a ship all alone on a ragin’ sea
You got me tossin’ and a-turnin’ and I can’t get free
Reach out your hand for me
And save what’s left of our love
I’ll forgive your lies and alibis
If you’ll wipe my cryin’ eyes

I’m goin’ 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 doin’ me wrong

Come on and save me
Come on and save me
(I’m goin’ down, down, down, down, down)
Save me, save me
(Don’t let it drown, drown, drown, drown, drown)
Drownin’, drownin’…
(I’m goin’ down, down, down, down, down)
(Don’t let it drown, drown, drown, drown, drown)
