Way Down Here Lyrics
Put off the mail and I
left on a light and I
locked up the house and I
jumped on a flight and Im
still by mself but I'm
thinking more clear.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down way down here.
Where no one will ask
cause nobody knows
you're not in my life anymore,
and no one can tell the salt water
from my tears.
No, the pull of the tide
or the crash of the waves
ain't gonna wash the memory away,
but there's a beautiful view
of the end of the world from up here.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down way down here.
Untied my lines and I
slipped through the sound and I
mixed me a drink, now I
sit on the bow and Im
watching the sun, just like
you, disappear.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down way down here.
Where no one will ask
cause nobody knows
you're not in my life anymore,
and no one can tell the salt water
from my tears.
No, the pull of the tide
or the crash of the waves
ain't gonna wash the memory away,
but there's a beautiful view
of the end of the world from up here.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down way down here.
No, the pull of the tide
or the crash of the waves
ain't gonna wash the memory away,
but there's a beautiful view
of the end of the world from up here.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'd rather be down way down here.
Way down here.
[A lot of pretty music]
left on a light and I
locked up the house and I
jumped on a flight and Im
still by mself but I'm
thinking more clear.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down way down here.
cause nobody knows
you're not in my life anymore,
and no one can tell the salt water
from my tears.
No, the pull of the tide
or the crash of the waves
ain't gonna wash the memory away,
but there's a beautiful view
of the end of the world from up here.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down way down here.
slipped through the sound and I
mixed me a drink, now I
sit on the bow and Im
watching the sun, just like
you, disappear.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down way down here.
cause nobody knows
you're not in my life anymore,
and no one can tell the salt water
from my tears.
No, the pull of the tide
or the crash of the waves
ain't gonna wash the memory away,
but there's a beautiful view
of the end of the world from up here.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down way down here.
No, the pull of the tide
or the crash of the waves
ain't gonna wash the memory away,
but there's a beautiful view
of the end of the world from up here.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'm gonna be down.
If I'm gonna be down,
I'd rather be down way down here.
Way down here.

this is probably my favorite song from his new record.
i think it's about a relationship he was in, and after it ended he just needed to get away. he needed a change where nobody would know anything, so they wouldn't ask, and it would make things a whole lot easier for him.
