Let Me Down

[Verse 1]
I know you, I need you
I had you, did I let you down?
You come and you go
I wait but never really know
Mm, did I ever know?

[Chorus]
Don't let me down
Don't you let me down
On and on, even the good die young
Heavy hands scupper the best laid plans
On and on, ever the foolish one
Who says what he wants
When he wants what he can't understand

[Verse 2]
Unfolding, strung out
I'm holding on, you're holding out
Don't kiss me, don't lie
You ask for freedom, then you cry
Oh, did I ever lie?

[Chorus]
Don't let me down
Don't you let me down
On and on, even the good die young
Heavy hands scupper the best laid plans
On and on, ever the foolish one
Who says what he wants
When he wants what he can't understand

[Post-Chorus]
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Don't you let me down
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
