I'll sing myself to sleep A song from the darkest hour Secrets I can't keep Inside of the day Swing from high to deep Extremes of sweet and sour Hope that God exists I hope I pray
Drawn by the undertow My life is out of control I believe this wave will bear my weight So let it flow
Oh sit down Sit down next to me Sit down, down, down, down, down In sympathy
Now I'm relieved to hear That you've been to some far out places It's hard to carry on When you feel all alone Now I've swung back down again It's worse than it was before If I hadn't seen such riches I could live with being poor Oh sit down Sit down next to me Sit down, down, down, down, down In sympathy
Those who feel the breath of sadness Sit down next to me Those who find they're touched by madness Sit down next to me Those who find themselves ridiculous Sit down next to me Love, in fear, in hate, in tears
Down Down
Oh sit down Sit down next to me Sit down, down, down, down, down In sympathy
Oh sit down Sit down next to me Sit down, down, down, down, down In sympathy
