Definition Of Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh, I love the rain
Beating on my window pane
I'll give you all my love
And keep nothing for myself
I'll sacrifice for you
And pay the price for love itself
Unconditional like a guy who takes the fall
Through the fire baby to the limit to the wall
Here I am can I be your fool
What you want
Cause I'll get it for you
And I don't know what to do
Cause I'm so in love with you
All my empty pockets spend
Ride with you to the very end
Telling you I'm down and then I'd do it all again
That's the definition of down
Baby let's get down to ground zero
That's the definition of down
Damn I dig you baby and you know
You know yeah you know
Deep down will dig for you
And ask for nothing in return
I'll give you all my specials baby
And any time you need to burn
I'll make it so organic daddy
Just like a stroll around the park
Get down like nice and easy
Like shadow boxing in the dark
Here I am can I be your fool
What you want
Cause I'll get it for you
And I don't know what to do
Cause I'm so in love with you
All my empty pockets spend
Ride with you to the very end
Telling you I'm down and that I'd do it all again
That's the definition of down
Baby let's get down to ground zero
That's the definition of down
I'm bout to put it down baby you know
You know yeah you know
Baby you know, yeah, you know
Through the fire to the limit to the wall
Here I come every time you call
Like the autumn leaves that fall
Never hesitate to give my all
Through the fire to the limit to the wall
Here I come every time you call
Like the autumn leaves that fall
Never hesitate to give my all
Through the fire to the limit to the wall
Here I come every time you call
Never hesitate to give my all
Like the autumn leaves that fall
Through the fire to the limit to the wall
Never hesitate cuz that's my definition
That's the definition of down, of down
Baby lets get down to ground zero, baby lets get down
That's the definition of down get down
I'm bout to put it down baby you know, baby and you know
That's the definition of down, that's the definition
Baby lets get down to ground zero, baby lets get down down
That's the definition of down, lets get down
Damn I dig you baby and you know, ahhhh
You know you know yeah you know you know
Baby you know, you know, yeah, you know
You know
