Not Waving, Drowning - James Reyne

Everybody’s on the street

Looking oh so good

There walkin' around thinking life is sweet

And it’s a beautiful day in the neighbourhood

I just wanna tell everybody

That you were the one

What you thought were your glory days

Seem to have come undone

Day after day I’m craving

The stuff that we were saving

You know now I’m not waving

I’m drowning

And every time I stop and wander

How I got a date with Botticell’s niece

She’s a’walkin' around

Saying look what I found

Now she’s ripping up my masterpiece

You were gonna beg steal or borrow

Until you had enough

Just like there’s no tomorrow

You keep a’laughing in the face of love

Day after day I’m craving

The stuff that we were saving

You know now I’m not waving

I’m drowning

I’m drowning

Day after day I’m craving

The stuff that we were saving

You know now I’m not waving

I’m drowning

I’m drowning

Day after day I’m craving

The stuff that we were saving

You know now I’m not waving

I’m drowning

I’m drowning

I’m drowning

I’m drowning

I’m drowning

I’m drowning
