When I saw you standing there

Right across the room

Short on cash, Long on class

She knew she'd found her fool

And I can't deny

Can't keep my eyes off you

Looked everywhere, now I swear

I must have missed a clue

They always say, You look away

When you know you're gonna lose

I can't deny

Anything's worth a woman like you



Took a look from higher ground

Nowhere to go but down



There's candlelight, diamonds bright

There are kings and queens

The fear inside is that we'll find

That they're just common thieves

And they can't deny

They're living beyond there means



Took a look from higher ground

Nowhere to go but down



High on the mountain top

Built on shaky ground

The rains are coming

And there's trouble all around

The river's rising

And the bridge is washing out

Your shop is sinking

And there's nowhere to go but down



On this road all alone

I hope you're gonna find

Your heart of stone

Cuts to the bone

To get to the bottom line

And you can't deny

No but you better believe



Took a look from higher ground

Nowhere to go but down



Took a look from higher ground

Nowhere to go but down



Took a look from higher ground

Nowhere to go but down



Nowhere to go but down

Nowhere to go but down

Nowhere to go but down

Nowhere to go but down
