I'm standing alone at the quayside
I'm watching all the ships as they go by
And crashing through the waves in my head
I don't know if I should wave goodbye
The captain's on the jetty landing
He's talking to all his men in white
The flags are going down, the tugs are moving in
The bosun's mate is heading
Down to the water
It sends a chill down down my restless spine
Going down to the water tonight
I'm heading into stormy weather
As the boat cleaves its way out of town
The sailors are standing dreaming
Thinking about their long-lost love
They'd left behind
Oh I don't know if I'll ever see you again
I'm going down to the water tonight
Tonight
And if you look on the bright side of love
And if look in the inside of water
And all you're gonna see is me
Dreaming of you
Dreaming of me
We're going down to the water
It sends a chill down down my restless spine
I'm going down to the water tonight
Tonight
We're going (Down to the water)
We're going (Down to the water)
We're going
Going
We're going down to the water
It sends a chill down down my restless spine
We're going down to the water tonight
Tonight
We're going down to the water
Oh I don't know if I'll ever see you again
We're going down to the water to drown
Oh to drown
