Won't Let You Down Restrung - Hilltop Hoods, Maverick Sabre

They say you can’t

Love and be wise, but I can pretend with you

If suddenly I ever had to surrender you

I’d fall in a heap;

I’d fall on the floor

And crawl on all fours for you I’d fall on my sword

If grief ever darkened my door you’d light it up

The way you brighten up a room hit’s me right in the

Chest, it puts the breath inside of my

Lungs, it’s like I leapt in the light of the

Sun, and in spite of my weary frown

You wear a smile that wears me down, so hear me out

I know that I wasted time

When I should have been replacing your last name with mine

And that mistake is mine believe me

I wear it like its sunburn, it might disappear but it won’t leave me

I’ll carry you on my shoulders, never set you down

Ferry you through the coldness, never let you down

I won’t let you down

Won’t let you down again

I won’t let you down

Won’t let you down again

Said I won’t

Travelling man in the back of a van

Capturing sands like time through the back of my hand

If I could hold it for a moment, do a lap of this land

I’d console you for a moment then be back in a glance

But I’m, so far since we left for the road

To chase the sun around the heavens and globe

Searching for the next episode, problem is that letting it go

Would be like letting go of everything I treasure and know

And whenever I go I think your chest will explode

A martyr with your heart like Brandon Lee’s death in The Crow

Try and understand where I lay my head is my home

And I was in love before this rap shit was ever in vogue

But if you feel that you’re ever alone

While standing in the same room as me let’s set it in stone

You can’t save me, a queen to this devilish rogue

But you’re bravely willing to give a hell of go so

I won’t let you down

Won’t let you down again

I won’t let you down

Won’t let you down again

Said I won’t

I hate that I wasted your touch and your taste

It’s my shame and can’t change it, want you to remain

My angel, my heartbeat, come closer, I’m sorry

My soul is your soul, you know this

And you know that I

Won’t be shy talking ‘bout what you’ve given me

Conflict diamond, you shine through the misery

You walk in a room and light it up that’s just with your entry

You walk in a room and light it up like it was four twenty

Some people never find out what they have

Only ever find out what they had, and I could’ve been

One of them, don’t know that I still won’t

And that thought hangs around my neck like a millstone

For real though, it’s like I lost you, left you, let you go

Before I got to get you or let you know

That you’re my refuge, and I need you to see

The only one that I let down more than you is me

And I won’t let you down

And I won’t let you down

I won’t let you down

Won’t let you down again

I won’t let you down

Won’t let you down again
