You Let Me Down

Lyin' on the floor and starin' at the ceilin'
Ooh, baby, you let me down
Cryin' to myself and tryin' to shake the feelin'
Ooh, baby, you let me down

You let me down easy, you let me down light
It really gets me down, but you let me down right
You set me down gently, you let me down slow
It's gonna take some time before I can let you go

Floatin' on the ceilin', starin' at the floor
Lookin' from above at what we had before
I could hear your motor hummin', I wanted you to stay
But I could see this comin' from a hundred miles away

Lyin' in the grass, starin' at the sun
Burnin' out the memory that you were the one
Tryin' to pretend that I didn't feel a thing
But it's feelin' as familiar as the simple song I sing

You let me down easy, you let me down light
It really gets me down, but you let me down right
You set me down gently, you let me down slow
It's gonna take some time before I can let you go

You set me down proper, you said the right things
The sun was comin' up, they were waitin' in the wings
The sun was goin' down, you were packin' up your clothes
You said, "I hate to let you down but, babe, I gotta go."

Lyin' in the back seat, eyes shut tight
Tired of starin' at the road so I'm stoppin' for the night
I can hear your motor hummin' so I'm coverin' some ground
Ooh, baby, you let me down
Ooh, baby, you let me down
