lyrics
DOWNTIME
Meet me down low where it’s dark and cold
I’ll raise your spirits over time
And send you back smiling when you’re ready to go
Back to the warm sunshine
But I can’t go with you, I’ve to stay down here
Where in these shadows I can disappear
My eyes have grown used to the dimming light
All Prussian blue and anthracite
I’m your downtime man, on your darkest night
Do what I say, not what I do, and you’ll be alright
If you come back down I’ll be hanging around
I’ll try to break your fall
If we don’t meet again I’ll assume, dear friend
That you’re happy now once and for all
Or you’ve settled back in to your old routine
With his temperate love and your fluoxetine
If you ever come back to the land of the low
And you need a chaperone
I’m your downtime man, on your darkest night
Do what I say, not what I do, and you’ll be alright
I’m your downtime man, from these helping hands
Take what you need and forget about me and you’ll be grand
I’m your downtime man, on your darkest night
Do what I say, not what I do, and you’ll be alright
I’m your downtime man, from these helping hands
Take what you need and forget about me and you’ll be grand
One of my favorite albums ever and I listen to it all the time, every song is beautifully made and I admire the songwriting. Way Up on the Mountain wrenches my heart in the best possible way, the blending and passion of these singers is something genuinely special. feathered_fingernail
