Tearin' Down My Mind Songtext
von Pablo Cruise

And we stood around a-talkin′
'Bout the good old days gone by
And how they′re changin' 'round the town
And someone wondered why

They say they′re keepin′ up now
So they don't fall behind
But everything they′re buildin' up now
It′s tearin' down my mind, oh yeah

Then someone said, "Let me take you down
And show you what they′ve done
To brighten up, they're tearin' down
The place where I was young"

They say they′re keepin′ up now
So they don't fall behind
But everything they′re buildin' up now
It′s tearin' down my mind, oh yeah
Tearin′ down my mind, oh yeah


Oh, all the nights by a dying fire
Eatin' fish we had to buy
Just talkin' ′bout those old times
It′s tearin' down my mind, oh yeah
Tearin′ down my mind, oh yeah

Everything they're buildin′ up, it's tearin′ down my mind
Oh yeah
Everything they're buildin' up, it′s tearin′ down my mind
Oh yeah
Everything, everything, everything, everything
Everything they're buildin′ up is tearin' down my mind
Everything, everything, everything, everything
Everything they′re buildin' up is tearin′ down my mind


(Tearin' down my mind, oh yeah)
They're tryin′ to keep from falling behind
(Tearin′ down my mind, oh yeah)
But while they're buildin′ up
Yeah, tearin' down my mind
(Tearin′ down my mind, oh yeah)
Tearin'
Tearin′ down my mind
(Tearin' down my mind, oh yeah)
Tearin'
Oh, oh, oh, oh yeah
(Tearin′ down my mind, oh yeah)
They′re always tryin' to keep up with the times
Oh yeah
(Tearin′ down my mind, oh yeah)
They're makin′ it up
Tearin', tearin′, tearin', tearin'
(Tearin′ down my mind, oh yeah)
Tearin′, tearin', tearin′, tearin'
Tearin′ down my mind
(Tearin' down my mind)
Tearin′, tearin'
