I don't believe a word you're saying and I know the game you're playing
So it's only just for now that I will let you take me down
You always manage to be low so I don't have a chance to go
And it's just temporary now that I will let you take me down

Pick me up on your way down don't your feet ever touch the ground
You know they never make a sound
And if I should turn out right say my prayers most every night
Now wouldn't that just be a sight
Oh oh yeah yeah

Now I aware I should know better but I don't when we're together
I'll forgive myself somehow and I will let you take me down
I can't hold on to myself and hold on to somebody else
So if I hold on to you now then I will let you take me down

Pick me up on your way down

Pick me up on your way down
