[Chorus 1]
I've been down one time
And I've been down two times
But now i'm drowning, drowning in the sea of love

[Verse 1]
I've been here so very long
I've lost all my directions
But, baby, when you came my way
I thought i had found perfection
But a strong wind came into my life
It surely took me by surprise
I can't seem to control these tears flowing from my eyes

[Chorus 1]

[Verse 2]
You know that i depend on you
For our love's an obligation
But now that you deserted me
I'm in desperation
But i'm in the middle of a bad love story
It really took me by surprise
I look around and all i see is water coming over me

[Chorus 1][x2]

[Chorus 2][x3]

[Bridge]
One time
Two times
Drowning, drowning in the sea of love
One time
Two times

[Chorus 1]

[Chorus 2]

Ringo Starr

Best known as the drummer for The Beatles, Ringo Starr (born Richard Starkey, 1940) also had a moderately successful solo career (with hits like “It Don’t Come Easy” and “Photograph”) and was the narrator for Thomas The Tank Engine.

His country-infused nickname emerged from a tendency to wear rings on his fingers.
