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
Pick me up when dreams are shattered,
when thoughts, friends cannot be found
For you know I'll still be waiting,
waiting for you
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
Pick me up on your way down
