George Jones - Love Coming Down lyrics

I remember how your eyes used to light up Over promises that 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 go away This would sure be one lonely old town For a man's so busy going up in the world That he couldn't see love coming down Love coming down I remember all the times you told me Love's all that matters to you And looking back now, wondering how I believed 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 And that a man's so busy going up in the world That he couldn't see love going down Love going down Can't you see how everything I've learned Would just be wasted if you leave me If you just give one more try I swear I'll always be here when you need me If you can find it in your heart to forgive me I'll try to keep both my feet on the ground But if a man's so busy going up in the world That he couldn't see love coming down Love coming down
