I hope you don't mind if I just have to say
Just talking up high, it is the only way
Only way
So, throw her a line, she's sinking fast
Show her the time is here at last
Throw her a line, she's sinking fast
Show her the time is here at last
Throw her a line, she's sinking fast
Show her the time is here at last
Throw her a line, she's sinking fast
Show her the time is here at last
Throw her a line
