Drowning In The Sea Of Love
King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
I've been out here so very long
I done lost all my direction
Baby, when you came my way
Thought i had found my protection
But a strong wind came into my life
It surely took me by surprise
I can't seem to control these tears
That's falling from my eyes
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love
Baby, i depended on you
For the love navigation
But now you've gone and deserted me
Can't you see that i'm in desperation
I'm in the middle of a bad love storm
And it's bad as it can be
I look around, all i can see
Is water coming down over me
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love, sea of love
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love
But right now i'm just drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
A sea of love, sea of love
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
I've been out here so very long
I done lost all my direction
Baby, when you came my way
Thought i had found my protection
But a strong wind came into my life
It surely took me by surprise
I can't seem to control these tears
That's falling from my eyes
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love
Baby, i depended on you
For the love navigation
But now you've gone and deserted me
Can't you see that i'm in desperation
I'm in the middle of a bad love storm
And it's bad as it can be
I look around, all i can see
Is water coming down over me
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love, sea of love
I've been down one time
And i've been down two times
But right now i'm drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
Sea of love
But right now i'm just drowning
Drowning in the sea of love
A sea of love, sea of love
Drowning In The Sea Of Love
Released by King Crimson, this track exemplifies the band's progressive rock sensibility, blending complex time signatures with atmospheric textures that became hallmarks of their early discography. The song reflects the group's experimental approach during the late 1960s, a period when they pushed the boundaries of rock music through intricate arrangements and jazz-influenced improvisation. While often associated with their seminal 1968 album, the recording stands as a testament to the band's commitment to musical innovation and their unique fusion of classical structures with electric instrumentation. It remains a significant piece in the catalog of works that defined the genre's evolution.
