Lyrics:

What say you now
The door is opening on your vigil
Now I'm in my usual way
I save my breath, knowing what you're
You're wanting me to say
I only love you when I'm down

You say that midnight opens its arms to me
Leaving you alone, then I fly so far away
Until the light blurs my vision and I have nowhere to roam
I only love you when I'm down
Ooo

And I only love you when I'm down
And I'm only near you when I'm gone
But one thing for you to keep in mind, you know
That I'm down all the time, all the time

Well, I know you're reaching out and you
You need to feel my hand
You want to be understood
Yeah, well, I understand
I know you hold precious little hope for me
And in your happiness, I'm always drowning in my grief

And I only love you when I'm down, oh-oh
And I'm only near you when I'm gone
But one thing for you to keep in mind, you know
That I'm down all the time, all the time

All the time
All the time
