You Let Me Down - Joel Plaskett

Lying on the floor and staring at the ceiling

Ooh, baby, you let me down

Crying to myself and trying to shake the feeling

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

Floating on the ceiling, staring at the floor

Looking from above at what we had before

I could hear your motor humming, I wanted you to stay

But I could see it coming from a hundred miles away

Lying in the grass, staring at the sun

Burning out the memory that you were the one

Trying to pretend that I didn’t feel a thing

But it’s feeling as familiar as the simple song I sing

You set me down proper, you said the right things

The sun was coming up, they were waiting in the wings

The sun was going down, you were packing up your clothes

You said, «I hate to let you down but, babe, I gotta go!»

Lying in the back seat, eyes shut tight

Tired of staring at the road so I’m stopping for the night

I can hear your motor humming so I’m covering some ground

Ooh, baby, you let me down
