Why Did You Pick Me Up When I Was Down, Why Didn’t You Let Me Lay Lyrics

[Verse]
Some of these days you're gonna feel so sad
And you will miss me too
Some of these days you're gonna want me back
And I won't return to you
Some of these days you're gonna feel so bad
And heartbroken, too
Old memories are going to haunt you, dear
Then these questions I'll ask you:

[Chorus]
Why did you pick me up when I was down?
Why didn't you let me lay?
You knew that I was young, an easy fool
And thought your love for me would stay
My poor heart is almost breaking
And all my loving you are taking
You know you fooled me, tried to misuse me
Why did you treat me that way?
You took me out into the world then left me all alone
And for each wrong, you'll pay
You're the only man that I adore
So listen while I say
You made me love you better than I love myself
And now you've gone and got somebody else
Why did you pick me up when I was down
Why didn't you let me lay?

[Chorus]
Why did you pick me up when I was down?
Why didn't you let me lay?
You knew that I was young, an easy fool
And thought your love for me would stay
My poor heart is almost breaking
And all my loving you are taking
You know you fooled me, tried to misuse me
Why did you treat me that way?
You took me out into the world then left me all alone
And for each wrong, you'll pay
You're the only man that I adore
So listen while I say
You made me love you better than I love myself
And now you've gone and got somebody else
Why did you pick me up when I was down
Why didn't you let me lay?
