Fleetwood Mac - Thrown Down lyrics

music and lyrics by Stevie Nicks

You fell for her again, she watched it happen

Every day, day by day

But more important, night by night

She watched it all come into play

He held her hands, she listened to what he had to say

Thrown down...like a barricade

Maybe now he could prove to her

That he could be good for her

And they should be together

You've shaken your faith in me, no

You've shaken the faith in everything else

A decision no one makes, and now you're going home

Faith is a hard thing to hold on to

Something inside you says I don't have to

You're not like other people, you do what you want to

You're not like other people, you do what you want to

Thrown down... like a barricade

Maybe now he could prove to her

That he could be good for her

And they should be together

(So overwhelming, baby)

(There's nothing left to say)

He fell for her again, she watched it happen

Every day, day by day

But more important, night by night

She watched it all come into play

He held her hands, she listened to what he had to say

Thrown down...like a barricade

Maybe now he could prove to her

(so overwhelming, baby...there's nothing left to say)

That he could be good for her

(he says he's sorry, baby...he should walk away)

And they should be together

(so overwhelming, baby...there's nothing left to say)

About just how much he never really told her

(he should walk away)

Thrown down (so overwhelming, baby...there's nothing left to say)

About how difficult it had been to be without her

(he should walk away...so overwhelming, baby)

Thrown down

(there's nothing left to say...he should walk away)
