Down Lyrics

It seems like everything is going wrong all day long
I've wondered
There must be something I can do to help the day along
Perhaps a song will do
Well how does that sound to you

Oh down down down
Going down down down
Could the sound of her voice take me higher
Could the smile on her face light my fire
Could a hand in my hand inspire me

I woke up found myself inside a cloud
Upside down and under
Well what the the hell its just as well I'm here at home
I don't have far to fall but that didn't help at all

Oh down down down
Going down down down
Could the sound of her voice take me higher
Could the smile on her face light my fire
Could a hand in my hand inspire me

Seems like I'm always here
Maybe I'm too near me
I would like to fly away
Its such a bore just to hear me breathing
They said tomorrow is another day
Well its hard to say till its over
It would be nice tonight to find someone to play
The song is nothing new still the song is true

I'm down down down
Going down down down
Could the sound of her voice take me higher
Could the smile on her face light my fire
Could a hand in my hand inspire me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
