You Tell Me That I'm Falling Down - Linda Ronstadt

You tell me that I’m falling down

A drifter with no role

You tell me that I need a friend

To help me take control

Well let it be I’m not alone

I’m only lonely see

And you can’t tell me where to go

Or what or who to be

I am exactly what I am

And not the way you’d like to see me be

I look outside long as I can

Then I close my eyes and watch my world unfold before me

I may not lead the simple life

I’ve no love of my own

If no one gives me all his heart

I’ll manage with a loan

I’m very used to feeling sad

It doesn’t make me cry

And yes I do know how to love

And what you say’s a lie

I am exactly what I am

And not the way you’d like to see me be

I look outside long as I can

Then I close my eyes and watch my world unfold before me

You tell me that I’m falling down

A drifter with no role

You tell me that I need a friend

To help me take control

Well let it be I’m not alone

I’m only lonely see

And you can’t tell me where to go

Or what or who to be

I am exactly what I am

And not the way you’d like to see me be

I look outside long as I can

Then I close my eyes and watch my world unfold before me
