Down Lyrics

I sat by the phone today
Waiting for you to call so I
Could pick it up and say hello to you
And you would say hello to me
Just like my dreams
Is there a reason why you’re gone?
I didn’t mean to be so wrong
I tried so hard to be the best that I could be
But still it seems
I always end up alone

Is there something inside me that I don’t see?
Is there something wrong here with the way I love?

Down, you can’t hold me down
Cause when no one is around
I won't be standing here
Just waiting for you to come back home again
Down, you can’t hold me down
Because I finally understand
That what you did is
Not so bad in fact it’s better for me

Did I not give you enough room?
Was I overtaking you?
And did my love for you just blind me from
What I was doing wrong?
I never meant you harm
Or was I not good enough for you?
Is that the reason why we’re through?
Was I not half the man you thought that I would be
But now you see?
Is that why you leave me?
Is that why you leave me?

Is there something inside me that I don’t see?
Is there something wrong here with the way I love?

Down, you cant hold me down
Cause when no one is around
I won't be standing here
Just waiting for you to come back home again
Down, you cant hold me down
Because I finally understand
That what you did is
Not so bad in fact it’s better for me

And Lord knows I try
To bring back my dreams
Cause I held onto yours for so long that I couldn’t hold my own

Down, you can't hold me down
Cause when no one is around
I won't be standing here
Waiting for you to come back home again
Down, you can't hold me down
Because I finally understand
That what you did is
Not so bad in fact it’s better for me
Down, down
You cant hold me down, again
You cant hold me down, down
You cant hold me down, again
