Got to get down, down on my knees   Got to get down, down on my knees      Going down on love, going down on love   Going down, going down, going down      When the real thing goes wrong   And you can't get it on   And your love, she has gone   And you got to carry on      And you shoot out the light   Ain't coming home for the night   You know you got to, got to   Got to pay the price      Somebody please, please help me   You know I'm drowning in the sea of hatred      I got to get down, down on my knees   I got to get down, down on my knees      Going down on love, going down on love   Going down, going down, going down      Something precious and rare   Disappears in thin air   And it seems so unfair   Nothing doin' nowhere      Well, you burn all your boats   And you sow your wild oats   Well, you know, you know   You know the price is right      Got to get down, down on my knees   Got to get down, down on my knees   Got to get down, down on my knees   Got to, got to, got to get down, down on my knees
