Hold Me Down Lyrics


So I guess I must have just been dreaming
When I thought I heard myself say, "No"
Anyway it looks like no one heard me so here I go'Cause when you're in the company of strangers
Or just the strangers you call friends
You know before you start just how it's going to endSo remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
Anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me downI can't remember why I like this feeling
When it only seems to let me down
Soon I find I'm searching for the exit from the groundAnd if I think the room is turning faster
Then I think the music is too loud
By then I've lived another broken story to let me outSo remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
When half the party moves into the bathroom, hold me downOr if you're at the tail end of the evening
And Dr. Feelgood comes around
Anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me downDown, if I want that part
Down, if I've gone too farWell I guess I must have just been reeling
When I felt myself begin to fall
I realize I'm bounding down the hallway, off the wallsAnd if my bed was standing in the corner

I could just fall into it right now
And know that I'd just be staring at the ceiling going round and roundSo remember when those doors swing open
And all the drinks are passed around
When half the party moves into the bathroom, hold me downOr if you're at the tail end of the evening
And Dr. Feelgood comes around
Anytime the pickins look too easy, hold me downDown, if I want that part
Down, if I've gone too farOh if I never think the room is turning faster
Then I think hey

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Gin Blossoms are an alternative rock band formed in 1987, in Tempe, Arizona, United States. The band originally consisted of Robin Wilson (vocals, guitar), Jesse Valenzuela (guitar, vocals), Doug Hopkins (guitar), Bill Leen (bass) and Phillip Rhodes (drums). Shortly after finishing their debut record "New Miserable Experience", the band fired Hopkins (who was also the band's principal songwriter and penned their hits "Found Out About You" and "Hey Jealousy") and replaced him with Scott Johnston. Sadly, Hopkins committed suicide in December of 1993. Rhodes left the band shortly after their 2002 reunion, and returned for a brief period in 2005. Currently the band does not have a permanent drummer.

They took their name from a photo of W.C. Fields which bore the caption "W.C. Fields with gin blossoms," referring to the actor's gin-ravaged nose. The band, who were musically weaned on The Byrds and Tom Petty, released three albums and had several hits in the mid 1990s, before breaking up in 1997. Five years later in 2002, the band reunited, released a DVD, resumed touring, and promised a fourth album. Major Lodge Victory, the Gin Blossoms' first album in ten years, was released on August 8, 2006 on the Hybrid Recordings label.
