It used to be such a good thing, such an easy feelin'
I never thought you were looking
Didn't know you were stealin'
I was lovin' you when we were alone
But you had other ideas of your own
Word gets around. Don't bring me down
Used to have us some good times
We used to laugh together
It took a while to realize you
Were wantin' somethin' better
When we were kissin', I closed my eyes
But you were lookin' at the other guys
I played the clown. Don't bring me down
It used to be such a good thing
Such an easy feelin'
I didn't know you were looking
Didn't know you were stealin'
I went and messed it up and fell in love
But you sure know how to make it rough
You're still around. Don't bring me down
