Yvonne Elliman - Love's Bringing Me Down

In the beginning, something was said and misunderstood
In the beginning, it wasn't so good
There was no excuse and no abuse
Just a turning away from the sun
It should not have begun

What can you say when time falls away?
And what's hangin' sad? Nothing to give
Nothing you've got that he'll take
Nothing left to share around
Nothing but weeping inside

Ooh, love's bringing me down
Just an early morning bring-down
Ooh, love's bringing me down
Bringing me down
Look out, love, you're bringing me down

I suppose that's what you get for believing in people
Trusting them all the time, not just a little
Oh, now and again, if I become cynical
Please excuse me, something is weeping inside

Ooh, love's bringing me down
Just an early morning bring-down
Ooh, love's bringing me down
Bringing me down
Look out, love, you're bringing me down

Remember the day I wore a simple smile?
The day I thought I would keep you to me?
The day I told you, "I should've expected your reaction?"
But that's so easy to say
We spent our daylight hours locked in separate conversation
You complaining about my voice
I can't remember what I thought about you then

Ooh, love's bringing me down
Just an early morning bring down
Ooh, love's bringing me down
Bringing me down
Look out, love, you're bringing me down, oh

And now, I walk out in the streets alone
Singing these words to the moonlight
Perfecting on the cobblestones
So little point in going home
You're not alone, no, you're not alone
You're not alone

Ooh, love's bringing me down
Just an early morning bring-down
Ooh, love's bringing me down
Bringing me down
Look out, love, you're bringing me down

In the beginning, something was said and misunderstood
In the beginning, it wasn't so good
There was no excuse and no abuse
Just the turning away from the sun
It should not have begun
