Throw her a line, she's sinking fast

Show her a sign, don't make her laugh

Don't try putting it on

Show her the time is here at last

And only the past is in the past

Don't try bringing it on

If it were you, you wouldn't wait so long

And if you were true you wouldn't car-ry on

On and on

So, throw her a line, she's sinking fast

Show her a sign, don't make her laugh

Don't try putting it on

Show her the time is here at last

And only the past is in the past

Don't try bringing it on

'Til there was you I was the on-ly one

'Til there was you she didn't car-ry on

On and on

Oh, throw her a line, she's sinking fast

Show her a sign, don't make her laugh

Don't try putting it on

Show her the time is here at last

And only the past is in the past

Don't try bringing it on

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
