Girls like you

Don't bring me down
Nothing has to last
forever
Don't bring me down
If you wanna stay together
You can push me only for so far
And you are
If you want me around then
Don't bring me down
Tell me, why you gotta dump your load on me
I don't want it at all
So I say to you, take your eyes and look the other way
Or you will see me fall
You've got pain I know I see
But why you gotta take it out on me
Don't bring me down
Nothing has to last forever
Don't bring me down
If you wanna stay together
You can push me only for so far, and you are
If you want me around then
Don't bring me down
Hear me, why you gotta treat me like a child
Cause it's getting old

And you say you care, but if you could hear the way you talk to me
You could be so cold
You've got pain I know I see
But why you gotta take it out on me
Don't bring me down
Nothing has to last forever
Don't bring me down
If you wanna stay together
You can push me only for so far, and you are
If you want me around then
Don't bring me down
If you take me as I am
And treat me like a man
And do to me what you want done to you
Then you will save my soul
And I won't lose control
Just like I've done it over and over before
No more
Just don't bring me down
