For a man's so busy going up in the world
Like some fool on a merry-go-round
Love's all that matters to you
Love going down
But if a man's so busy going up in the world
But for the first time in my life
I know now how it feels to be afraid
Can't you see how everything I've learned
I remember all the times you told me
That he couldn't see love coming down
Would just be wasted if you leave me
If you can find it in your heart to forgive me
I don't know what I'd do if you go away
I'll try to keep both my feet on the ground
I had things more important to do
This would sure be one lonely old town
And looking back now, wondering how I believed
And that a man's so busy going up in the world
I swear I'll always be here when you need me
That he couldn't see love coming down
I can see how I must have looked to you
That he couldn't see love going down
If you just give one more try
Love coming down
