"Take Me Down"

I realized this morning that you
Got control of me
And now I’m slipping back into my old ways

But it’s taken all my strength to love you
Now I’ve got nothing left to
Push you away

I promised myself I wouldn’t
I told myself I couldn’t
And if I do you’d better know
How badly you have
Broken my heart

But you could still
Take me down
Anytime at all
Take me down...

You don’t know what I would do
If I did not hold you in
The highest respect

You don’t know the things I must hold back
When you think I
Just haven’t got a word to say

Did you see me with my head down
So that you wouldn’t
See my tears

‘Cause your arms were not around me
Well this ain’t the way it should be
But please don’t make me
Be the first to leave

But you could still
Take me down
Anytime at all
Take me down...

So I’m allowed to be your friend
Could I ever be your love?
Ooh, I know, I know, the answer
Will always be
No...

I realized this morning that you’re
In my every thought
What makes you so special, anyway?

Ah, you don’t know that you’re about to lose me, do you?
If you did, if I told you, would you
Even try to keep me in your life?

The fact that I can question this
Should make me strong enough to say goodbye
It’s always been enough before, but baby, you are
Trouble, you don’t understand
You taught me what love is...

But if I say goodbye
You could always take me down
Anytime at all
Take me down...

Take me down with you...
I will always love you
Take me down
I will always want you...
