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
