Intro

What say you now?

The door is opening on your vigil

And i'm in my usual way

I save my breath, knowing what you're

Wanting me to say

I only love you when i'm down

You say that midnight opens its arms to me

Leaving you alone, and i fly so far away

Until the light blurs my vision

And i have nowhere to roam

I only love you when i'm down

And i only love you when i'm down

º

And i'm only near you when i'm gone

º /

But one thing for you to keep in mind, you know

I'm down all the time

Well i know you're reaching out

And you need to feel my hand

You want to be understood, yeah well i understand

I know you hold precious little hope for me

And in your hapiness

I'm always drowning in my grief

And i only love you when i'm down

º º

And i'm only near you when i'm gone

º /

But one thing for you to keep in mind, you know

I'm down all the time

All the time, all the time, all the time
