Be My Downfall - Del Amitri

The bus is pulling out and I guess I’d better go Before I make a grave mistake and let my feelings show

And twenty miles away she waits alone for me But when I try to picture her you’re the one I see

And in another situation I could put up a fight

But you will be my downfall tonight

So the night is coming down, drowning us in blue

And it all points towards the things we know we shouldn’t do And as I look at you and I fall under your spell

Well I know I should be thinking of her lying there herself

And when faced with temptation you know a man should stand and fight

But you will be my downfall tonight

Be my downfall be my great regret be the one girl

That I’ll never forget

Be my undoing be my slow road to ruin tonight

So the bus is pulling out and I’m grounded here with you

And I want to say the sweet things babe I’ve always wanted to So tell me now the tail-lights have gone out of sight
