| Once my love was good enough
|
| True happiness we knew
|
| Then fame and fortune came your way
|
| And made a change in you
|
| You’ll find your ladder of success
|
| Is not on solid ground
|
| And when it starts to tumble
|
| Pick me up on your way down
|
| Pick me up when dreams are shattered
|
| When false friends cannot be found
|
| For you know I’ll still be waiting
|
| Pick me up on your way down
|
| Instrumental
|
| You’ve hit the top, but it won’t last
|
| There’s just one way to go
|
| The world you’ve chosen is not real
|
| These things you’ll come to know
|
| When folks say they don’t know you
|
| And you’ve lost your final round
|
| When you find that you are lonely
|
| Pick me up on your way down
|
| Pick me up when dreams are shattered
|
| When false friends cannot be found
|
| For you know I’ll still be waiting
|
| Pick me up on your way down… |
