Something in this mad town thrills me so
Just one taste, and the juices flow
Sure, I'd get crazy here before too long
But right now, girl, I feel the tap is turned on

Lately I've been fading away
Like a old torn photograph, fingered and grey
Losing myself inside this thing we share
(Boom! Boom!) Babe, I'm coming up for air!

Dancing to the beat of the city at night
No use in pretending that it won't feel right
The power, the passion, the hunger in the eyes
Something in this child's still in love with those liеs

We're togethеr and you know it's true
All I ever wanted was to be with you
But sometimes I wonder how this dream can last
When the best part of me keeps sinking so fast (feels like)

Drowning in a sea of love
Going down for the third time, baby
Drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down

And I'm praying to the stars above
'Take me up to where my soul don't cry!'
'Cause I'm drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down, tumbling down
Now, I know darlin' it's a weakness in me
Nothing that you do says I can't be free
I dip in my foot till the toe gets wet
Then I run home crying 'Is this all I get?'

Frightened to go, frightened to stay
Frightened that our lovelight's fading away
Somebody tell me how a man survives
With his body and soul livin' separate lives ('cause I'm)

Drowning in a sea of love
Going down for the third time, baby
Drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down

And I'm praying to the stars above
'Take me up to where my soul don't cry!'
'Cause I'm drowning in a sea of love
Tumbling down, tumbling down
Tumbling down, tumbling down
