Make me a promise you can't keep
|
Tell a joke that's not too deep
|
'Cos I'm out of double meanings
|
|
Throw me a rope that I can't reach
|
As you lay back on your beach
|
I'm not waving, only drowning
|
But don't let it bring you down
|
Don't let it bring you down
|
|
Who asked you for your advice?
|
Who asked you to interfere?
|
All my life you kept the lights out
|
Now it seems so clear
|
Who asked you to criticise?
|
I don't need no volunteer
|
So when they come to put the fires out
|
I might not be here
|
|
Don't let it bring you down
|
Don't let it bring you down
|
|
Buy me a beer that I can taste
|
Like the kisses that you waste
|
'Cos I'm out of legal tender
|
|
Big deal, there's a little rust in my piano
|
A few more lines upon my face
|
There's corrosion in my fingers
|
But don't let it bring you down
|
Don't let it bring you down
|
|
Who asked you for your advice?
|
Who asked you to interfere?
|
All my life you kept the fire on
|
It still gets cold in here
|
Who asked you to sympathise?
|
I don't need your volant tears
|
So when they come to turn the lights out
|
I might not be here
|
|
Don't let it bring you down
|
Don't let it bring you down
|
