the drowning man - windfall (uk) lyrics
did you ever stand gazing to watch a man drowning
and been jealous not knowing, oh just what he’s knowing?
you get to him in haste, then pull him out
later you’ll ask him ”what’s it really all about?”
and when he won’t tell you, you’ll throw him back in
but this time, bound firmly like fish without fins
ah, but as he sinks down, you’re still longing to know
he’s found what you’re looking for there down below
but now it’s too late as you realize he’s gone
you turn back to the land where life jogs along
and much later at night when the sea’s at low tide
and there’s no one around, so you’ve no need to hide
you’ll come back to the beach and stand close to the foam
and patiently wait for the water to come
ah, yes and then when it does, you float up like a sack
the sea’s made it clear that it’s giving you back
so now you have lessons in learning to drown
with second*class teachers for the best have gone down
and someday quite soon, you’ll be ready to try
your own hand at drowning in the hope that you’ll find
some glimpse of the truth as you gently sink down
before coming to rest on your new burying ground
