Song Lyrics
Gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh, I'll never know what makes this man
With all the love that his heart can stand
Dream of ways to throw it all away
Oh, gravity is working against me
And gravity wants to bring me down
Oh twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees
Oh twice as much ain't twice as good
And can't sustain like one half could
It's wanting more that's gonna send me to my knees
Oh gravity, stay the hell away from me
And gravity has taken better men than me
Now how can that be?
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep me where the light is
Just keep where the light is
C'mon keep me where the light is
C'mon keep me where the light is
C'mon keep me where, keep me where the light is.
