[Verse 1]
I light your cigarettes
I bring you apples from the vine
How quickly you forget
I run the bath and pour the wine
I bring you everything that floats into your mind

[Chorus]
But you don't bring me anything but down
You don't bring me anything but down
You don't bring me anything but down
When you come 'round

[Verse 2]
You are a raging sea
I pull myself out everyday
I plea insanity
Cause I can't leave but I can't stay
You say, won't you come find me and yes is what I say

[Chorus]
But you don't bring me anything but down
You don't bring me anything but down
You don't bring me anything but down
When you come 'round

[Verse 3]
Maybe I'm not your perfect kind
Maybe I'm not what you had in mind
Maybe we're just killing time
You with your silky words
And your eyes of green and blue
You with your steel beliefs
That don't match anything you do
It was so much easier before you became you

[Chorus]
But you don't bring me anything but down
You don't bring me anything but down
You don't bring me anything but down
When you come 'round

[Verse 4]
No more playing seek and hide
No more long and wasted nights
Can't you make it easy on yourself
I know you wish you were strong
You wish you were never wrong
Well, I got some wishes of my own
