You Won’t Let Me Down Again
You sold your soul when you drank the morning dew
Down on your luck and so thirsty through and through
A crack in the mirror tells
Of seven years of pain
And you won't let me down again
Drive through the land just to see the ocean green
Race to the coast as no telling where I've been
Both eyes on the road ahead
Don't wanna look behind
And you won't let me down again
Ten miles south of the city
I lose you in the rain
So you won't let me down again
Aeroplane, aeroplane race across the fields
Taking me homewards, further from the deals
If our love was a weaker man
Give up without a sound
But you won't let me down again
Strength is in the solitude
I try to obtain
But you won't let me down again
A head full of visions I struggle to recall
Most ancient of wisdoms a fortitude I saw
Air will crack with me
The harvest moon will rain
And you won't let me down again
And I don't look for pity
So if it's all the same
You won't let me down again
You won't let me down again
