[Verse 1]
Down
Where I'm going is down
'Cause you danced me around
Made me too dizzy to see
Down
Boy, did you let me down
There's a permanent frown
Where my smile used to be

[Bridge]
Pride has kept me from crawling
But sorrow is constantly calling
'Cause you are the man who's not falling for me

[Verse 2]
Down
I'm the fool of the town
Someone send in the clowns
That song's about me

[Bridge]
Carelessly I let you saunter in
And out of the chambers of my heart
Disguised as a gentleman
Heartlessly and much to my chagrin
You quickened your step as you left
And that's where my soliloquy begins

[Verse 3]
Down
Isn't it profound?
You're the wolf on the bound
I'm the helpless sheep

[Instrumental break]

[Bridge]
Carelessly I let you saunter in
And out of the chambers of my heart
Disguised as a gentleman
Heartlessly and much to my chagrin
You quickened your step as you left
And that's where my soliloquy begins
[Verse 4]
Down
My heart makes not a sound
It's somewhere on the ground
Breaking beneath my feet
