Lyrics
Sinkin' Like A Stone
© 2016 Hank Thomas/ all rights reserved
We were cruising like an ocean liner sailin' right along
Didn't see that broadside comin', now I'm sinkin' like a stone
I thought we had a perfect love, now I'm floating in the eye of the storm
I'm drifting along, trying to make it back to the shore
Pre
Some body throw me a line 'cause I'm out here, all alone
I'm a wreck of a man, and I'm sinking like a stone
CH1
Some body throw me a line 'cause I'm out here, all alone
I'm a wreck of a man, and I'm sinking like a stone
Since you're shoving off I'm flounderin' in distress
So I'm sending you this message S.O.S.
Now I'm drowning in a sea of madness out on my own
I'm a wreck of a man, and I'm sinking like a stone
I'm barely treading water, goin' down for the count of three
I'm Tryin' to keep from going under after what you've done to me
Pre
There's a bad storm ragin', and I'm down here on my knees
Tidal wave's crashin and my heart's about to seize
CH2
I'm a wreck of a man, and I'm sinking like a stone
Somebody throw me a line 'cause I'm out here, all alone
Since you're shoving off I'm flounderin' in distress
So I'm sending you this message S.O.S.
Now I'm drowning in a sea of madness out on my own
I'm a wreck of a man, and I'm sinking like a stone
I'm a wreck of a man, and I'm sinking like a stone
There's tidal wave crashin' and I'm out here, all alone
Yeah, I'm a wreck of a man, and I'm sinking like a stone
