The sun is coming up and I'm just going down
|
Everywhere I look the world keeps turning 'round
|
Though I said I never would be satisfied
|
Baby I lied I couldn't leave you if I tried
|
|
Sometimes I get lost out on this sad old town
|
And every bridge I cross just turns me upside down
|
And every stumbling step I take back to your side
|
Hurts my pride I couldn't leave you if I tried
|
|
Well I could not walk away no matter what I say
|
I won't be leaving believe it or don't
|
You're all that I want
|
|
Tears may fall but after all is said and done
|
Darlin' please believe me you're the only one
|
And I'll admit mistakes I've made me realize
|
Baby I lied I couldn't leave you if I tried
|
|
I won't be leaving you no matter what I do
|
I'm gonna see it through 'til the end
|
And do it again
|
|
Years may come and friends may go but that's OK
|
Darlin' you're the only one I need to stay
|
I know I said I never would be satisified
|
Baby I lied I couldn't leave you if I tried
|
I couldn't leave you if I tried
|
