When We're Down Lyrics

We used to watch the sun going down

Over the cedar trees

You used to watch the world going round over me

I used to call you up sometimes

When no one seemed to care

You came around with those angel eyes

And the flowers in your hair

And when I felt you breaking

Well you know I was right there by your side

And when you felt me fading

You just looked me in the eye

And you pulled my lonely feet back to the ground

But when we're down

Who will turn this love around

Oh when we're down

We're not the ones to run and hide from

We're not the enemy

We're just two parts in the same great mystery

Come maybe we will answer the sound

Wrestling in our brains

Someday baby we will dance to the rhythm of the pain

And when you feel you're sinking

You can stand up on my shoulders high

And when you feel me fading

you just look me in the eye

And you pull my lonely feet back to the ground

But when we're down

Who will turn this love around

Oh when we're down

I want to fly

I want to sing

Of your sweet generosity

I want to climb

I want to be here

To see your sweet love come over me

Come over me and you

But when we're down

Who will turn this love around

Oh when we're down
