Get Me Through This

[Verse 1]
I wait for the doctor to speak
I'm well rehearsed as I lay and leak
My father, he's in the game
And the silent agreement has been exchanged
Though he respects what I do
He doesn't know what I go through
One day when I'm 35
He'll see me in buildings as he walks on by

[Pre-Chorus]
All I ever wanted was your time

[Chorus]
Just get me through this
I won't let you down
Just get me through this
While I'm safe and sound
Just get me through this
I won't let you down
Just get me through this
While I'm safe and sound

[Verse 2]
I'm 26 going on 55
Just getting to 30 would be a surprise
Live for today 'cause that's hard enough
No time to speculate if I'm loved or missed
Or loved or missed or loved or missed
Or loved or missed or loved

[Pre-Chorus]
All I ever wanted was your time
Why has that always been a crime?

[Chorus]
Just get me through this
I won't let you down
Just get me through this
While I'm safe and sound
Just get me through this
I won't let you down
Just get me through this
