Sometimes it's hard to look up under The times we're going through I scratch my head and stare and wonder How to face the day anew But it gives my life a bit more meaning To feel in love with you, so heavy I don't want to weigh you down, oh baby I don't want to tie you down I don't want a thing to mar this ever The picture that we make The balance of our minds together The perfect give and take For me to let my love possess you Would be the worst mistake, I'm sorry I don't want to bring you down, oh baby I don't want to tie you down, oh Jesus I don't want to nail you down
