Sometimes it's hard to look up under
 The times we're going through
 I scratch my head and stare and wonder
 How to face the day anew
 But it gives my life a bit more meaning
 To feel in love with you, so heavy
 I don't want to weigh you down, oh baby
 I don't want to tie you down
 I don't want a thing to mar this ever
 The picture that we make
 The balance of our minds together
 The perfect give and take
 For me to let my love possess you
 Would be the worst mistake, I'm sorry
 I don't want to bring you down, oh baby
 I don't want to tie you down, oh Jesus
 I don't want to nail you down
