AS I WENT DOWN

there's my body in the water, there's my body in the sea, a useless thing that i don't need to bring floating gently in the swim. and did you notice by chance, was it hopelessly romantic, or was i scared and gasping for air, just a fool  in the Atlantic.

(chorus) as i went down.....

and i was cast with you don't pretend to understand you, not the way you may me. just a boat man of you ocean always knowing you'd come for me. and though i vowed to regret nothing i would have liked to have a clear blue sky as i take my final bow, and i still don't get it now.
(brk)

has it been hours or seconds hard to notice if it moved. gradual gentle and oh so still and no sound was coming through.
