Every now and then I get a feeling That I've left something behind me But I don't know what it is yet
Like I tied a piece of string Round my finger And I hope this will remind me Of the places I have been through
When I'm down, down, down When I'm down, down, down
Every now and then When I'm feeling lonely I turn on my radio Because I'm hoping that you're out there
It seems so long ago I would see your writing On a postcard or a note And your stories would excite me
When I was down, down, down When I'm down, down, down
Wherever you stop along the way I hope the wind blows you Back into my life At the end of the road And if I'm only dreaming Then won't you tear the curtains down And let the light back into this empty room?
Kissing in your room Climbing out the window Trying not to make a sound, but With my first love on my mind
You see, we were never through I never said I loved you Even when we said goodbye Never thought it was the last time
Down, down, down And I'm down, down, down
Wherever you stop along the way I hope the wind'll blow you Back into my life At the end of the road And still, every now and then I hear a voice Singing to me softly Deep inside my head And it sings till I fall asleep If I'm only dreaming Won't someone tear the curtains down? Tear the curtains down
Every now and then I get a feeling It's like I've left something behind But I don't know what it is yet
Every now and then When you're feeling lonesome Just sing this melody And remember where going
When you're down, down, down When you're down, down, down When you're down, down, down When you're down, down, down When you're down, down, down, down When you're down, down, down, down, down
