Down Like a Rock

Laura Branigan

Branigan, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Was there light on the water when I fell in and drowned?
Did anyone see my body go down?
Did he call out "Someone help, she can't swim!"?
Or did he just laugh when I slipped and fell in?
I went down without a trace
And all I could see was a smile on his face
I fell in, was I pushed in the fog?
When I went down, I went down like a rock
Did anyone jump in, or climb down the rungs
To catch me and save me, and pump out my lungs?
I saw nobody cry on board, nobody offered a prayer
Did anyone notice, doesn't anyone care?
I went down without a trace
And all I could see was a smile on his face
I fell in, was I pushed in the fog?
When I went down, I went down like a rock
Was there light on the water when I fell in and drowned?
Did anyone see my body go down?
Did he call out "Someone help, she can't swim!"?
Or did he just laugh when I slipped and fell in?
I went down without a trace
And all I could see was a smile on his face
I fell in, was I pushed in the fog?
When I went down, I went down like a rock
I went down without a trace
And all I could see was a smile on his face
I fell in, was I pushed in the fog?
When I went down, I went down like a rock
