LOU REED - Going Down lyrics

rate me

When you're in a dream

and you think you got your problems all nailed down

Pieces of the scheme

seem to rattle up and then to rattle down

And when you start to fall

and those footsteps they start to fade

Well then you know you're going down

yeah, you're falling all around

And you know you're going down

for the last time

When you're in the air

and you're thinking you'll drift off into the west

Your friends polite, advise

hey look you're pushing too hard

and perhaps you need a rest

And when you start to fall

and all those footsteps they start to fade

Then you know you're going down

yeah, you're crashing upside down

And you know you're going down

for the last -

- Time's not what it seems

it just seems longer, when you're lonely in this world

Everything it seems

would be brighter if your nights were spent with some girl

Yeah, you're falling all around

yeah, you're crashing upside down

Oh, oh, and you know you're going down

for the last time
