Down

Amel Larrieux

Down
Where I'm going is down
'Cause you dance me around
Make me too dizzy to see

Down
Boy did you make me down
There's a permanent frown
Where my smile used to be

Pride has kept me from crawling
But sorrow is constantly calling
'Cause you are the man who's not falling for me

Down
I'm the fool of the town
Someone send in the clowns
That song's about me

Carelessly I let you saunter in
All of the chambers of my heart
Disguised as a gentleman

Heartlessly, and much to my chagrin
You quickened your step
As you left
And that's where my soliloquy begins

Down
Isn't it profound
You're the wolf on the bound
I'm a helpless sheep

Carelessly I let you saunter in
And out of the chambers of my heart
Disguised as a gentleman

Heartlessly, and much to my chagrin
You quickened your step
As you left
And that's where my soliloquy begins

Down
My heart makes not a sound
It's somewhere on the ground
Breaking
