I can't get it right
After a while, I'm found out
I'm so uptight
I'm not the one to follow the crowd

And I can feel it falling over
I'm going face-first into the ground
And now I'm always mulling it over
Wondering why

I'm not scared to figure it out
I'm not always gonna get you down
One of these days
One of these nights
It can't be too long before I get it right
Please don't leave me falling behind (ahh)

I wanna hold you
I can't tell you that it's gonna be fine
You know, I told you many times
Talking to walls is just a waste of time

Why do I feel like I'm going nowhere?
Can't get my feet back on the ground
And I don't wanna be caught back in the middle
Of everything now

I'm not scared to figure it out
I'm not always gonna get you down
One of these days
One of these nights
It can't be too long before I get it right, yeah
Please don't leave me falling behind (ahh)
Please don't leave me falling behind (ahh)
