Lyrics
Love ship's going down hey my love ship's going down
Bit by bit pieces are being ripped off and then thrown down
Down under in a cold dark place, never again to see the sun's face, leaving without a trace my love ship's going down My love ship's going down hey my love ship's going down
words all over town about my love ship going down
Thought if I steered it in the right direction it would sail safely to shore one day, but this ship had a life of it's own there was nothing I could say
my Love ship's going down
Love ship's going down hey my love ship's going down, I walk by as a witness to, my love ship going down
so I sit here on the sidelines, knowing there's nothing I can do, my love ship's going down with all my dreams of a love that's true, my love ship's going down
Love ship's going down yea my love ship's going down
words all over town about my love ship going down
Waters coming way up now way over the deck maybe with all this dying this whole thing will be put to rest, my love ship's going down
Love ships going down hey my love ship's going down
I walk by as a witness to my love ship's going down
Well if ever see it later, later after this life, maybe I'll feel some pleasure, but here on earth it just don't feel right my love ship's going down
Love ship's going down (Repeat 1st verse)
