Oh, the feeling when you're reeling
You step lightly, thinking you're number one
Down to zero with a word, leaving for another one
Now you walk with your feet back on the ground
Down to the ground, down to the ground
Down to the ground, down to the ground
Brand-new dandy, first-class scene-stealer
Walks through the crowd and takes your man
Sends you rushing to the mirror, brush your eyebrows and say
"There's more beauty in you than anyone"
Oh, remember who walked the warm sand beside you
Moored to your heel, let the waves come rushing in
She took the worry from your head, but then again
She put trouble in your heart instead, then you fall
Down to the ground, down to the ground
You'll know heartache, still more crying
When you're thinking of your mother's only son
Take to your bed, you say there's peace in sleep
But you dream of love instead
Oh, the heartache you'll find
Can bring more pain than a blistering sun
But, oh, when you fall
Oh, when you fall, fall at my door
