Titanic Original by Cindy Tonkin and Stu Dowling


Cindy Tonkin - April 3, 2025

Original lyrics by Cindy Tonkin and Stu Dowling. To the tune of Cecilia by Simon and Garfunkel.

Titanic, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence in sailing
Titanic, I’m down on my knees
Just begging you please to slow down.
Just slow down

Iceberg. Get out of my way.
I’ve got no more room to be turning.
Oh, Iceberg. I’ve got no lifeboats.
The passengers are all now yearning

Titanic, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence in sailing
Titanic, I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please to slow down.

Titanic, you’ve got no life boats
You’re full of yourself and you know it
Indestructible, watch out for my ice
Not telling you twice just turn round
Just turn round

Titanic, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence in sailing
Titanic, I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please to slow down.

Sailing west in the afternoon
Through the porthole of my small bedroom
Did you know I saw one hundred feet of ice
But the captain he said “Oh well that is so nice”

Titanic, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence in sailing
Titanic, I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please to slow down.

Jubilation
there’s nothing to fear
I put on my tux and I’m dancing
ubilation
there’s nothing to fear
I put on my tux and I’m dancing

Titanic, you’re breaking my heart
You’re shaking my confidence in sailing
Titanic, I’m down on my knees
I’m begging you please to slow down
