Текст Blue October – Been Down

I dreamt you seduced me
Just to walk away
I dreamt you inspired
Then rewired what I say

Chorus:
So tell me
How long, how long have I been down?
How long, how long have I been down?
How long, how long have I been down?
Down

I dreamt you burned my fingers
An automatic sting
I dreamt you called me beautiful
Then asked to hear me sing
I dreamt you sat, invited me
To crawl within your space
But then I woke up feeling nauseous
Girl, you danced around my face

Chorus:
So tell me
How long, how long have you been down?
How long, how long have you been down?
How long, how long have you been down?
Down, down

Why can’t we work when we both try?
We try, we try, we try

I meant to sympathize I meant to be a friend
I know apologizing wont erase the end
But I learn that moving on, is where I must begin
Because when our colors mixed
We couldn’t fix the way they wouldn’t blend

Chorus:
Tell me
How long, how long have we been down?
How long, how long have we been down?
How long, how long have we been down?
Down, down, yeah

And I wish that only greatness follow you around
I hope to God, you find a way to keep from down
When you do I hope you share it all with me
Please try to understand, yeah to understand me
Just try to understand me, yeah understand me

How long, how long have we been down yeah.
Down, down, down, yeah
