I just don't understand

They say love is compromise

Where does that leave us?

When I look in your eyes

You seem to care

Then you lead me to another place

It isn't fare all these rules you make

I just can't stay around

With all your foolish games

It's like a miracle I've made it this far

And you say you won't keep fighting

But I know you will

It's like a cycle and still

You keep pulling me

Down down down down down

Lower than I've ever known

Oh you tease me with a smile

Then you leave me all alone

I still wish things were good

Just like they used to be

Two friends who fell in love

Trapped in the mystery

We had so much in common

And we laughed at everything

That was long ago

Before you went and changed

Before we lost control

Before we started to fight

Before you raised your voice

Before I left that night

And now I'm left here crying out

Head up to the sky

Trying to get back to the point

When we were right

You keep pulling me

Down down down down down

Lower than I've ever known

Oh you tease me with a smile

Then you leave me all alone

Like a drop of rain

Falling through a passing wind

You keep pulling me

Down down down down down

Can we get back up again?

Just one

One glimpse of happiness

And I won't have to guess

If love has won

You keep pulling me down

Like a drop of rain

Falling through a passing wind

You keep pulling me

Down down down down down

Can we get back up again?
