[Verse 1]
I'm relieved to hear
That you've been to some far out places
It's hard to carry on
When you feel all alone
The wisdom that I seek
Has been found in the strangest spaces
It feels a lot like love
That I feel for you
[Pre-Chorus]
Drawn by the undertow
My life is out of control
I believe this wave will bear my weight
So let it flow
[Chorus]
Oh, sit down, oh, sit down, oh, sit down
(Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down next to me)
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
(Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, down)
In sympathy
[Verse 2]
Swing from high to deep
Extremes of sweet and sour
Hope that God exists
I hope, I pray
[Pre-Chorus]
Now, I′ve swung back down again
It's worse than it was before
If I hadn′t seen such riches
I could live with being poor
[Chorus]
Oh, sit down, oh, sit down, oh, sit down
(Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down next to mе)
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
(Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, down)
In sympathy
[Bridge]
Those who feel thе breath of sadness
Sit down next to me
Those who find they're touched by madness
Sit down next to me
Those who find themselves ridiculous
Sit down next to me
In love and fear and hate and tears
In love and fear and hate...
[Chorus]
Oh, sit down, oh, sit down, oh, sit down
(Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down next to me)
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
(Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, down)
In sympathy
Oh, sit down, oh, sit down, oh, sit down
(Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down next to me)
Sit down next to me
Sit down, down, down, down, down
(Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down, down)
In sympathy
[Outro]
Sit down, sit down, sit down, sit down next to me
