Don't Put Me Down
Somehow the seeds of the love we have sown
Have been dying
Still we keep speaking the language thereof
Are we lying?
Anymore, anytime we say hello
Feels like we're saying good-bye
Looks like the well has run dry

Please don't put me down--My love's surrendered to you
Please don't put me down--My love's dependin' on you

Last time I touched you
I thought my desire would blind me
Still I keep fearin'
My best days with you are behind me
Anywhere, anytime we'd hang around
Seemed like the hours would fly
Now we just smile and sigh
Why?

Please don't put me down--I'd walk the fire for you
Please don't put me down--All my desire's for you

When we're together I feel so alone
Seems like long-distance when we're on the phone
Tell me what's turning our laughter to stone
Baby, please

Maybe this time
It's just me and just my 'magination
The man in the mirror can lie
Just for cheap consolation
Letters from me lyin' round on your floor
From when I was still in your love
I've got to get back in your love
Baby

Please don't put me down
My eyes are cryin' for you
Please don't put me down
My soul is dyin' for you

Please don't put me down
I'd live forever with you
Please don't put me down
