You used to tell me that you understood
What I was going through
You know I'd give up almost anything
To be with you And now you're acting like you didn't know
What I was looking for
Seems every time we fight it's always when
I'm at the door Well, did you change your mind
Or are we out of time? Don't hold me down don't hold me down
I need this side of me
Don't hold me down don't stop me now
Love me or set me free Don't hold me down don't hold me down
I need my room to breathe
We've come to far to turn around
Don't hold me down! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't hold me down
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah You tell me that you really care
About the way I feel
How am I supposed to know
If you're for real You act like you're the only one
Who needs to move ahead
Choose between your life or me
Is all he said Well, did you change your mind
Or are we out of time? What happened to the man I know
The one who never let me go
No matter what I say or do
I found that man in you Never scared or insecure
Always ready to endure
So much room for something more
What are we fighting for
