Lyrics
Hold your head up high
And carry on
You know the reason why
You're falling
Watch the ground beneath your feet
You'll never see the light of day
And you're so good at making a fool out of me
But I'll carry on
You gotta stop oh
You gotta stop, stop what you're doing to me
I'll shed a tear for you
The little things that you do
We can dance, yea we can dance
Or we can cry our tears away
Do you feel like you're falling?
Do you feel like you're going down?
She can ease the pain
She can make your heart bleed
You gotta stop oh
You gotta stop, stop what you're doing to me
