Lyrics

Get Back Down

Love has a meaning

A meaning we should know

What it is is that something's wrong

Because of where it is we go

Chorus:

Who here smiles?

Who here sobs?

Who here looks to see what's lost?

Who here lies?

Who hears truth?

Who here even wants to choose?

Born with a little room

Born with some light

You who have all a pleasure cause

Where did you come from?

Chorus

Oh, have you gone and missed this call

What it is is that something's wrong

Because it wasn't here before

Chorus

Get back down

Get back down

Get back down to the ground

Get back down

Get back down

Get back down where you belong
