I tried to give up on love 'Cause I knew I should No matter how hard I tried It didn't do me no good
I just stopped cold turkey What else could I do There were pieces of my heart all over town And I was runnin' out of blue
I was feelin' okay When I got out of bed But what I saw outside my window Was like a kick in the head
My hands started shakin' I felt the cold chills begin When I saw that truck pull up Now look who's movin' in
He lives twelve steps down In the apartment below He's got what it takes to tempt a woman Body and soul And if I fall I ain't got far to go Slidin' around I'm losin' ground He lives twelve steps down
I tried to get a better look So I sneaked downstairs And just three steps from the bottom I saw him standing there
Ain't it just my luck He says he wants to be my friend He set two glasses on the table Now he's invitin' me in
And he lives twelve steps down In the apartment below He's got what it takes to tempt a woman Body and soul And if I fall I ain't got far to go Slidin' around I'm losin' ground He lives twelve steps down
He lives twelve steps down In the apartment below He's got what it takes to tempt a woman Body and soul And if I fall I ain't got far to go Slidin' around I'm losin' ground He lives twelve steps down
Slidin' around I'm losin' ground He lives twelve steps down Twelve steps down
