I remeber how your eyes used to light up At the promises I made But for the first time in my life I know now how it feels to be afraid. I don't know what I'd do if you'd go away This would sure be one lonely old town For a man so busy going up in the world He couldn't see love coming down, love coming down. I remember all the times you told me Love's all that mattered to you And looking back now wondering how I believe I had things more important to do. I can see how I must have looked to you
Like some fool on a merry-go-round Another man so busy going up in the world He couldn't see love coming down, love coming down. Can't you see how everything I've learned Wuld just be wasted if you leave me If you'll just give it one more try I swear I'll always be here when you need me. If you can find in your heart to forgive me I'll try to keep my feet on the ground Forgive a man so busy going up in the world He couldn't see love coming down,love coming down. I need you baby...
