A song suggesting the relationship is sinking, But there's still the hope of patching it up.

I played bass, keyboards, guitar and sang. The marimba on the Donner keyboard in the Bridge is intended to hint of the passing of time. At first I tried a woodblock, but it was too intrusive, then I tried drum sticks, but they were too subdued, so the marimba played the part of Goldilocks in this downer. The solo was done on my Parker P-31, and yeah I play that picless too. Some say I write too many sappy happy songs. Well, one must go through some of the downs to give the smile a reason to be brighter, so, yeah, this one could be autobiographical, and relatable to anyone with a heartfelt smile.

Down Down Down

Down. Down. Down. How deep we don't know.
We used to reach up for the top, but now we're letting go.
Let's climb back up, or else our love may drown.
I heard you saying to a friend, "It seems we're losing ground.

Down, down, down. We're sinking so far down.
Down, down, down. How far till we drown?

Down. Down. Down. How far will we go?
There seems to be a warning light of what we still don't know.
Down. Down. Down. Everyday we're farther down.
We're spinning in circles, losing our way. We need to turn around.

Once upon a time we knew our future was secure.
Then suddenly a flood of doubt, and now we're both unsure.

Down, down, down. Let's just dam the flow.
Down, down, down. I don't want us to go.

Down, down, down. I feel the undertow.
Down, down, down. I don't want to us go so low.
