Don't your hurting me ever affect your sympathy
My crying sight is all you ever see on me
From down here the future never looks too bright for me
The only time I know just where I stand is when I'm on my knees
My first mistake in life was loving you
Tell me what else do you need to always make me blue
Constantly I find myself saying please
The only time I know just where I satnd is when I'm on my knees
A man should be able to stand on his two feet
And always be prepared for love's danger he might meet
But the things that you keep doing keep me so low that I can't see
The only time I know just where I satnd is when I'm on my knees
[ steel ]
The only time I know just where I stand is when I'm on my knees
