Friday night beneath the stars
in a field behind your yard
you and I are paintin’ pictures in the sky
And sometimes we don’t say a thing
just listen to the crickets sing
Everything I need is right here by my side
And I know everything about you
I don’t wanna live without you
[Chorus:]
I’m only up when you’re not down
Don’t wanna fly if you’re still on the ground
It’s like no matter what I do
Well you drive me crazy half the time
the other half I’m only trying to
Let you know that what I feel is true
And I’m only me when I’m with you
Just a small town boy and girl
livin’ in a crazy world
Tryin’ to figure out what is and isn’t true
And I don’t try to hide my tears
The secrets or my deepest fears
Through it all nobody gets me like you do
And you know everything about me
You say you can’t live without me
[Chorus:]
I’m only up when you’re not down
Don’t wanna fly if you’re still on the ground
It’s like no matter what I do
Well you drive me crazy half the time
the other half I’m only trying to
Let you know that what I feel is true
And I’m only me when I’m with you
When I’m with anybody else
It’s so hard to be myself
Only you can tell
[Chorus:]
That I’m only up when you’re not down
Don’t wanna fly if you’re still on the ground
It’s like no matter what I do
Well you drive me crazy half the time
the other half I’m only trying to
Let you know that what I feel is true
And I’m only me
Who I wanna be
Well, I’m only me when I’m with you
With you uh huh yeah
