"Got Me Down" lyrics

"Got Me Down"

Darling, oh, my darling
Why you taking me? Why you taking me under?
Darling, oh, my darling
Why you taking me? Why you taking me under?
How do you find your home from here?

So I went to a church
To find the one that I loved
But no one was waiting for me
Just a man with a broom and two doves
I drove out to the city
To see if I'm even just pretty
But no one was there even to stare
Guess I'm stuck being fair for awhile

It's, it's about time
Time to drown

Nothing is what I need
Nowhere is what I see
Everything's wrong when it's right
Man, got a light hand, I don't understand
Why do these days take so long?
One man is holding me back
Two women want me to crack
People taking me outside my head
When I wanna be somewhere else
That ain't got a line so long
Can you tell me
Tell me where I'm found?

Helplessly
I'm devoteless (helplessly I hide)
Remoteless (and I'm gone)
Disappointless (gone, gone, gone until tonight)
Truth always be showing me just how it is to lie, yeah

Nothing is what I need
Nowhere is what I see
Everything's wrong when it's right
Man, got a light hand, I don't understand
Why do these days take so long?
One man is holding me back
Two women want me to crack
People taking me outside my head
When I wanna be somewhere else
That ain't got a line so long
Can you tell me
Tell me where I'm found?

Darling, oh my darling
Why you taking me?
Why you taking me under?
Darling, oh my darling
Why you taking me?
Why you taking me under?
How do you find your home from here?
