Won't Let You Down
They say you can't love and be wise, but I can pretendWith you, if suddenly I ever have to surrender youI'd fall in a heap, I'd fall on the floorAnd crawl on all fours, for you I'd fall on my swordIf grief ever darkened my door, you'd light it upThe way you brighten up a room hits me right in the chestIt puts the breath inside of my lungsIt's like I lept in the light of the sunAnd in spite of my weary frownYou wear a smile that wears me downSo hear me out, I know that I wasted timeWhen I should've been replacing your last name with mineAnd that mistake is mine, believe meI wear it like a sunburn, it might disappear but it won't leave meI'll carry you on my shoulders, never set you downFerry you through the coldness, never let you downI won't let you down, won't let you down againI won't let you down, won't let you down againTravelling man in the back of a vanCapturing sands like time through the back of my handIf I could hold her for a moment, do a lap of this landI'd console you for a moment, then be back in a glanceBut I'm so far since we left for the roadChicks I've seen around the heavens and globeSongtexteSearching for the next episodeProblem is, in letting it goBe like letting go of everything you treasure and knowAnd whenever I go, I think my chest will explodeNo matter where your heart at, brain leaves death in the crewTry and understand, where I lay my head is my homeAnd I was in love, before this rap shit was ever in vogueBut if you feel that you're ever aloneWhile standing in the same room as meLet's set it in stoneYou can't save me, acquainted to this devilish roadBut you're bravely willing to give a hell of a goSoI won't let you down, won't let you down againI won't let you down, won't let you down againI hate that I was wasted your touch, your tasteMy shame, can't change, want you to remainMy angel, my heartbeat, come closer, I'm sorryMy soul is, yours truly, you know thisAnd you know that IWon't be shy, talking bout what you're giving meConflict diamond, you shine through the miseryYou walk in a room and light it up, that's just with your entryYou walk in a room and light it up, like it was four twentySome people never find out what they haveOnly ever find out what they hadAnd I could've been one of them, don't know if I still won'tAnd that thought hangs around my neck like a millstoneFor real though, it's like I lost you, left you, let you goBefore I got to get you, or let you knowThat you're my refuge and I need you to seeThe only one I let down more than you is meAnd I won't let you down, and I won't let you downI won't let you down, won't let you down againI won't let you down, I won't let you down again Aus Songtexte Mania
