Going Down

Lou Reed

Verse 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 (going down) Yeah, you're falling all around (going down) And you know you're going down (going down) For the last time Verse 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 Well then you know you're going down (going down) Yeah, you're crashing upside down (going down) And you know you're going down (going down) For the last time... Bridge 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 (going down) Yeah, you're crashing upside down (going down) Oh, oh, and you know you're going down (going down) For the last time Outro
