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’s 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 matters 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’s 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 le-ave me If you just give one more try I swear I’ll always be here when you n-eed me If 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’s so busy going up in the world That he couldn’t see love coming down Love coming down
