Going Down the First Time - John Coghlan

I wake up every morning and that’s my first mistake

From thereon in it’s downhill all the way

I used to have a problem but now you want to leave

My new problem’s getting through the day

Going down for the first time

Guess I’ve yet to learn loves ain’t blind

I could use a little help, I can’t stay here by myself

And I can’t work you out of my mind

Now I don’t mind admitting that maybe you were right

The more we try the less it seems to work

We get so used to banging our heads against the wall

It’s only when we stop it starts to hurt

Going down for the first time

Guess I’ve yet to learn loves ain’t blind

I could use a little help, I can’t stay here by myself

I’ll step right out of line, I’ll go clean out of time

Yes I could use a little help, know I’d lose it by myself

If you fall out of sight, you know you’ll turn out the light

Going down for the first time

Guess I’ve yet to learn loves ain’t blind

I could use a little help, I can’t stay here by myself

I’ll step right out of line, I’ll go clean out of time

Yes I could use a little help, know I’d lose it by myself

If you fall out of sight, you know you’ll turn out the light

And I’ll quietly go out of my mind
