What say you now?

The door is, opening

On your vigil

And I'm in my usual way

I'll save my breath, knowing

What you're wanting me to say

"I only love you, when I'm down"

You say that midnight

Opens it's song for me

Leaving you alone

And then I fly so far away

Until the light blurs my vision

And I have nowhere to roam

I only love you when I'm down

[Chorus:]

And I only love you when I'm down

And I'm only near you when I'm gone

But one thing for you to keep in mind, you know

That I'm down, all the time

All the time

[Bridge]

I know you're reaching out

And you need to feel my hand

You wanna be understood

Yeah, well I understand

I know you hold

Precious little hope for me

And in your happiness

I'm always drowning in my grief
