Down

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 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 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 to me
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

Down
Down, you can't hold me down again
You can't hold me down, down
You can't hold me down, again
