Todd Rundgren - I Don't Want to Tie You Down

Sometimes it's hard to look up under
The times we're going through
I scratch my head and stare and wonder
How to face the day anew

But it gives my life a bit more meaning
To feel in love with you, so heavy
I don't want to weigh you down, oh baby
I don't want to tie you down

I don't want a thing to mar this ever
The picture that we make
The balance of our minds together
The perfect give and take

For me to let my love possess you
Would be the worst mistake, I'm sorry
I don't want to bring you down, oh baby
I don't want to tie you down, oh Jesus
I don't want to nail you down
