Artist: Gin Blossoms Album: New Miserable Experience (1992) Title: Hold Me Down
Lyrics Hold Me DownSo I guess I must have just been dreaming When I thought I heard myself say no, And anyway it looks like no one heard me, So here I go. 'Cause when you're in the company of strangers Or some strangers you call friends, You know before you start Just how it's gonna end.
And so remember when those doors swing open And all the drinks are passed around, Anytime the pickin's look too easy Hold me down.
I can't remember why I like this feeling When it always seems to let me down, But soon I find I'm searching for the exit from the ground. And if I think the room is turning faster And I think the music is too loud By then I'll have another broken story To let me out.
And so remember when those doors swing open And all the drinks are passed around, When half the party moves into my bathroom Hold me down. And if you're at the tail end of the evening And Dr. Feelgood comes around, Anytime the pickin's look too easy Hold me down.
Down, yeah but not that far. Down, yeah but not too far.
Well I guess I must have just been reeling When I felt myself begin to fall I realized I'm bounding down the hallway Off the walls. And if my bed was standing in the corner I could just fall into it right now And know that I'd be starin' at the ceiling Goin' 'round and 'round.
And so remember when those doors swing open And all the drinks are passed around, When half the party moves into my bathroom Hold me down. Or if you're at the tail end of the evening And Dr. Feelgood comes around, Anytime the pickin's look too easy Hold me down.
Down, yeah but not that far. Down, yeah but not too far.
Know that I will never be back home. Down, yeah but not too far. |
