I remeber how your eyes used to light up all the promises 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 do if you go away this would show me one lonely old town

For a man so busy going up in the world
He couldn't see love coming down love coming down
I remember all the times you told me love's all that mattered to you
And looking back now wondering how I believe 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
Another man so busy going up in the world
He couldn't see love coming down love coming down
Can't you see how everything I've learned would just be wasted if you leave me
If you'll just give it one more try I swear I'll always be here when you need me
If you can find in your heart to forgive me I'll try to keep my feet on the ground
Forgive a man so busy going up in the world
He couldn't see love coming down love coming down I need you baby
