I’m standing alone at the key side
And watching all the ships as they go by
The crashing of the waves in my head
I don’t know if I should wave good bye

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 boatswains mate is heading

Down to the water
It sends a chill down my restless spine
We’re going down to the water
Tonight

I’m heading into stormy weather
oh as the boat cleaves it's way out of town
The sailors are standing dreaming
Thinking about their long lost love
They had left behind
Oh I don’t know if I’ll ever see you again
We’re going down to the water
Tonight
Tonight

And if you look on the bright side of love
And If you look on the inside of water
All you’re gonne see is me
Dreaming of you
Dreaming of me

We’re going down to the water
It sends a chill down my restless spine
We’re going down to the water
Tonight
Tonight
We’re going down to the water
We’re going down to the water

We’re going down to the water
It sends a chill down my restless spine
We go down to the water
Tonight
Tonight
We’re going down to the water
I don’t know if I’ll ever see you again
We’re going down to the water
To drown
To drown
