lyrics

BRING ME DOWN
Words and music ©1984 by Dave Caruso

I guess you understood me wrong this time
You argue like your life is on the line
I don’t believe the things you say
Do you stay up late thinkin’ up this shit
So the hurt won’t go away?

Your smile fell off your face and rolled away
That hole beneath your nose makes noise all day
You can touch but you can’t feel
Everyone’s entitled to your opinion
And nothing else is real

But you can’t bring me down, bring me down to you
You know you’ll never bring me down, bring me down to you
Cause I know you and it’s something you can’t do
Quit before you’re through
I’m over you so you can’t bring me down

It must be nice to never once think twice
What makes you think the world needs your advice
You’ve got a way with ugly words
You act like you’re on “All My Children”
And when you talk it hurts

But you can’t bring me down, bring me down to you
There’s no way you can bring me down
Bring me down to you
Cause I’ve seen you and I’ll never be like you
Quit before you’re through
I’m over you so you can’t bring me down

Oh…

Oh you can’t bring me down, bring me down to you
No, you’ll never bring me down, bring me down, bring me down to you
--Down, --down, --down to you
You can’t bring me down, bring me down to you
