saw a group of people forming
|
round a figure lying down
|
and someone runs to make a phone call
|
and the man kneels on the ground
|
the man kneels on the ground
|
there's a tightening in my chest
|
i know that I'm drawn in
|
oh god let it not be - you
|
|
don't leave us
|
don't leave like this
|
don't leave me here again
|
i'm not quitting on you
|
no one else
|
you're not quitting on us
|
no running out
|
|
the colour in your shirt is darkening,
|
against the paleness of your skin
|
i remember how you held the goldfish
|
swimming around in a plastic bag
|
swimming around in a plastic bag
|
|
you held it up so high
|
in the bright lights of the fair
|
it slipped and fell
|
we looked everywhere
|
|
don't leave us (your eyes are bright, your blood is warm)
|
don't leave like this (your heart is strong, you're holding on)
|
don't leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
|
i'm not quitting on you
|
there's no one else
|
you're not quitting on us
|
there's no way out
|
no way out
|
|
don't leave us
|
don't leave like this
|
don't leave me here again (i feel your pulse, i hold your hand)
|
i'm not quitting on you
|
there's no one else
|
you're not quitting on us
|
no running away - no way out
|
