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
Chorus:
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
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
Repeat chorus.
