If they asked me to knock you down
I would not
If they asked me to push you around
I could not
[verse]
No matter how hard they try
I wont let them make you cry
I could never hurt you on purpose
I’m only scratching the surface
Some say I should forget you
Others say I need to hate you
I’m told to kick you while you’re down
And try and run you out of town
I never had ill thoughts towards you
I never said anything untrue
I won’t call you any nasty names
And I’ll never play any games
I would do anything to keep you safe
You just need to have a little faith
I would pick you up when you would fall
Fight your battles, whether big or small
[chorus]
If they asked me to knock you down
I would not
If they asked me to push you around
I could not
[chorus]
If they asked me to knock you down
I would not
If they asked me to push you around
I could not
I’m still in love with the memory of you
And I don’t know what I would do
If we happen to run into one another
Would we happen to still like each other?
I can’t stop thinking of the way it used to be
Me in love with you and you in love with me
But now I’m setting you free at last
Leaving it all behind, back in the past
[chorus]
If they asked me to knock you down
I would not
If they asked me to push you around
I could not
they can ask me to knock you down
I would tell them to go to hell
they can ask me to push you around
I would just wish you well
I don’t know if you can tell
Yeah, I want to wish you well…
