| Laughter & Lust |
| Drowning |
| (words and music by Joe Jackson) |
| I don’t love you |
| But I’m lost |
| Thinking of you |
| And the ghosts |
| Of so many special moments |
| That passed so quickly at the time |
| And now they come and track me down |
| And echo round and round and round |
| And time goes slowly |
| Or disappears completely |
| And I feel like I fade away |
| Like drowning |
| I don’t need you |
| But it’s so hard |
| To be without you |
| Though you’re not far away |
| I censor my emotions |
| And tell myself to bide my time |
| But every time you come around |
| You batter my defences down |
| But so gently |
| Like some sweet hypnosis |
| And the world just slips away |
| I’m drowning |
| It’s dark |
| My heart is pounding |
| I’m sinking down |
| Into a pool of passion |
| There’s laughter as I drown |
| Like so many lost before me |
| Damned by lust and gone to hell |
| And then I look into your eyes |
| And something melts |
| I shake inside |
| And cool water |
| Washes me all over |
| Washes me away |
| And still I’m drowning |
