This started as a joke between me and a friend...when I'm down she's doing great.....but when she's down I'm doing good....I revel in your misery While you rejoice in mine When you cry I'm dancing When my tears fall you shine When your lips curl on down My head stands ever so high When my face coils into a scowl Your steps become airy and spry
And they say we were meant for each other It is a love that never will die I sing as I grip your hand tightly inside of mine Of our love as we stand together, together beneath the sky
I sit here and joke and laugh When I see that you are in pain You drink and point and smile When I take to the knife again I shout out halleluiah When I see you tying the knot You loudly praise the lord above When you see that I am distraught
Chorus:
