Sindi Jordaan - Man Down Lyrics

We met and I thought there was something special
Then we talked and I knew there was something special
I spent my time just listening to your fights
And you hid your heart I was trying so hard to find.
Man down, broken and torn apart
His smile is still stuck from the shock that he got
When I found a whole in the walls
Man down, well I was only trying to help
I looked into his eyes the tears filled it up
And when he saw that I saw he turned cold
Oh Man down oh, oh oh
Man down oh, oh, oh
Man down oh, oh, oh
Man down.
You held my hand hoping I could fix you up
Then my repairmen came, but we weren't strong enough
You walked away when you felt that I knew too much,
And you gave everything to someone else who promised you love.
Man down, broken and torn apart
His smile is still stuck from the shock that he got
When I found a whole in the walls
Man down, well I was only trying to help
I looked into his eyes the tears filled it up
And when he saw that I saw he turned cold
Oh Man down oh, oh oh
Man down oh, oh, oh
Man down oh, oh, oh
Man down.
You came faithlessly, but you gave it a try
You whispered for help in your screaming eyes
I gave you my hand and I thought I could help, but
I'm only human, so where do I start?
Your ashy heart is barricaded in
I pray oh my dear that you realize when
You've given all these people a chance to break through
That there's only one way to get through to you
Man down, broken and torn apart
His smile is still stuck from the shock that he got
When I found a whole in the walls
Man down, well I was only trying to help
I looked into his eyes the tears filled it up
And when he saw that I saw he turned cold
Oh Man down oh, oh oh
Man down oh, oh, oh
Man down oh, oh, oh
Man down.
