"Anything But Down" lyrics - SHERYL CROW

SHERYL CROW
"Anything But Down"

I light your cigarette
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
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

You are a raging sea
I pull myself out everyday
I plead insanity
'Cause I can't leave and I can't stay
You say "won't you come find me?" And "yes" is what I say
You don't bring me anything but down
You don't bring me anything but down
Everything is crashing to the ground

Well, maybe I'm not your perfect kind
Maybe I'm not what you had in mind
And maybe were just killing time

Here with your silky words
And your eyes of green and blue
Here with your still beliefs
That don't match anything you do
It was so much easier before you became you
You don't bring me anything but down
You don't bring me anything but down
Everything just crashes to the ground
And you come around
And you come around

Well, 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've got some wishes of my own
