Not a lot's been going on. How about yourself?
You act like you're surprised that I'm alive without your help.
I guess that you expected I'd be lying on the ground.
Well, I got a long way to go before I'm down.
Lately, when I think of you, I don't feel so alone,
I've taken steps to see how far I'll go out on my own.
And since you left, I'm suddenly so much fun to be around.
No, I got along way to go before I'm down.
I thought that I'd fall when you left me, and honey I just about did.
But it didn't take long to recover, despite all the mean things you said.
So, in case you think I spend my time trying to hide a frown.
I got a long way to go before I'm down.
So, I guess this means bye bye, though you said it long ago.
And I hate to disappoint you, but I thought you might like to know.
Now, I can't say I'm quite as high as when you were around.
But I've got a long way to go before I'm down.
