You’re too serious and you’re dragging me down

You’re too serious and not enough of a clown

I got in too deep now I need to escape

I never felt that much it was only a Jape

 

To hear the words I don’t Love you no more

Are more than enough to knock you down on the floor

I never had a chance to defend my own heart

I never felt so bad since we’ve been apart

 

You’re too serious and you’re dragging me down

You’re too serious and not enough of a clown

I got in too deep now I need to escape

I never felt that much it was only a Jape

 

I only gave to you what you wanted I’m sure

Maybe I moved to fast but my feelings were pure

The speed things changed I could never have known

We had just reached the stage where our feelings had grown

 

You’re too serious and you’re dragging me down

You’re too serious and not enough of a clown

I got in too deep now I need to escape

I never felt that much it was only a Jape

 

I planned to hold you and have a great year

I never expected to have felt so much fear

I needed you but you didn’t need me

It’s hard to understand what the other does see

 

You’re too serious and you’re dragging me down

You’re too serious and not enough of a clown

I got in too deep now I need to escape

I never felt that much it was only a Jape

 

I still am sure that I must have done something wrong

Because it is still for you that I long

But you won’t tell me or talk to me straight

Is you’re heart filled with Love or with hate

 

You’re too serious and you’re dragging me down

You’re too serious and not enough of a clown

I got in too deep now I need to escape

I never felt that much it was only a Jape
