Tom Waits - Goin' Down Slow Lyrics

Tom Waits Lyrics

"Goin' Down Slow"

Well, it's a quarter of two
And I'm lookin' at you
We're goin' down, goin' down slow

Yeah, it's a quarter of two
And I'm lookin' at you
We're goin' down, goin' down slow

T.V. went off about one
We have only begun
I know that the wine's nearly gone
But I have no intention of goin' home

It's a quarter of three
And you're diggin' on me
We're goin' down, goin' down slow

Could stay here all night
Thinkin' you're out of sight
Please get up and turn out the light
There ain't nothin' better than the middle of the night

When it's a quarter of four
And beggin' for more
When we're goin' down, goin' down slow

We're goin' down, goin' down slow
Goin' down, goin' down slow
Goin' down, goin' down slow
