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 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 matter 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 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
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 so busy going up in the world
That he couldn´t see love coming down
Love coming down
