Now the sounds of love died away
I heard you whisper: please stay
don't go away, I need you
We were happy for many a time
and words we spoke turned to rhyme
until the time I hurt you

Ups and downs
I've got to go, I've got to run
Ups and downs
I've got to go now

Oh, I tried to tell you there's nothing about you
to make me be feeling the way that you do
Oh, but I just can't go on pretending I love you
but now I'll be leaving my darling we are through

Ups and downs
I've got to go, I've got to run
Ups and downs
I've got to go now

Words are wasted and blowm in the air
they're all alone in despair
up in the air they're flying
Now the time to go has arrived
I'll say no more, turn your eyes
up to the skies, stop crying

Ups and downs
I've got to go, I've got to run
Ups and downs
I've got to go now
