Goin' Down Lyrics

Goin' Down (Pat Robinson) Things have been hittin' me hard these days It's not really like me to be the way I been I guess I been mostly runnin' 'round in a daze I've always had more than a handout left to spend Your door's always knockin' when you're on top, they say Well, mine's always knockin' but no one's ever there How it feels to be comin' when everyone else is goin' away Is somethin' that you hide by pretending that you don't really care CHORUS And honey, how I need you How I'd like to meet you Comin' 'round the next time around 'Cause if I'm not goin' up I'm goin' down Don't say it 'less you mean it, if you mean it, don't say it ? show me I'm believin' half I see and not a thing I hear Sometimes I close my eyes to see more clearly Sometimes pain only brings me a lonesome tear CHORUS No woman, no man's got a permanent hold on breathin' And when I stop ? don't be thinkin' that I'll be dead 'Cause just as breathin' ain't never been a sign we're living Dying's not a sign that I never really meant what I said And honey, when it's over I'll make it over But it'll have to be the next time around 'Cause if I'm not goin' up Well you know I'm not goin' up 'Cause if I'm not goin' up I'm goin' down
