Sometimes I get up just to watch you sleepnYou know when I get high, it’s just to be near younBut this can’t sustainnnYou’re so soft, soft as your voice takes me apart & gives me awaynPiece by piece, day after daynnYou can hold me down, I know you’d like to change but you don’t know hownEverything looks great here in your shadow of doubtnYou can still hold me downnnI get so tired, I try to turn you aroundn& All of my words they keep falling by the wayside, eyes widenYou’ve got nothing to say still, you can’t turn away nownnYou can hold me down, I know you’d like to change but you don’t know hownYeah, everything it’s great here in your shadow downnI want to hold you the way that you hold mennI need just touch to move me, I need you who sees right through menI can’t stand to hear you say, “Your yesterdays were all my mistakes”nWhy do I give so much when you give up?nnYou can hold me down, I know you’d like to change but you don’t know hownEverything looks great here in your shadow of doubtnBut I’m going to hold you the way that you hold me down
