| So your standing on a ledge
|
| It looks like you might fall
|
| So far down
|
| Or maybe you were thinking about jumping
|
| Now you could have it all
|
| If you learned a little patience!
|
| For though I cannot fly
|
| I’m not content to crawl…
|
| So give me a little credit
|
| Have in me a little faith!
|
| I want to be with you forever
|
| If tomorrow’s not too late…
|
| And it’s always too late when you’ve got nothing
|
| So you say…
|
| But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow
|
| Before the sun rises today…
|
| If I Am…
|
| Another waste of everything you dreamed of
|
| I will let you down…
|
| If I Am…
|
| Only here to watch you as you suffer
|
| I will let you down…
|
| So your walking on the edge
|
| And you wait your turn to fall
|
| But you’re so far gone
|
| That you don’t see the hands upheld to catch you
|
| And you could find the fault
|
| In the heart that you’ve been handed!
|
| For though you cannot fly
|
| You’re not content to crawl…
|
| And it’s always too late when you’ve got nothing
|
| So you say…
|
| But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow
|
| Before the sun rises…
|
| If I Am…
|
| Another waste of everything you hoped for
|
| I will let you down…
|
| If I Am…
|
| Only here to watch you as you suffer
|
| I will let you down…
|
| So you’re standing on a ledge
|
| It looks like you might fall…
|
| If I Am…
|
| Another waste of everything you dreamed of
|
| I will let you down…
|
| If I Am…
|
| Only here to watch you as you suffer
|
| I will let you down…
|
| The answers we find
|
| Are never what we had in mind
|
| So we make it up as we go along…
|
| You don’t talk of dreams
|
| I won’t mention tomorrow
|
| And we won’t make those promises that we can’t keep…
|
| I will never leave you!
|
| I will not let you down!
|
| I will never leave you!
|
| I will not let you down!
