Lyrics
If you want to be free, then lay on the land
If you want to hold on child, you better do all that you can
You know that life can bring you down
I said that Life can bring you down, so down
Down to your knees
And if I give it to you, would you give it back to me
Or would you hold it in your arms, would I have to say please
You know that life can bring you down
I said that Life can bring you down, so down
Down to your knees
Solo
You know that life can bring you down
I said that Life can bring you down, so down
Down to your knees
