Lyrics
Hey there girl it’s gonna be OK
Every now and then we have those days
I could be your shelter from the storm
But I’m just passing by, and I ain’t gonna lie
I’m too afraid to stay, I tell you why
I don’t wanna let you down
Knowing that you hold me up so high
And don’t let it get you down
Even when you start to realise
I’m not all you think I am
You know I’m just a waste of time
I’d only let you down if you were mine
You got me standing on a pedestal
But soon you’ll understand I’m just a fool
That’s how it goes I’ve seen it all before
I’ll make you feel so low, It’s better if I go
And you will think I’m cruel but you should know
I don’t wanna let you down
Knowing that you hold me up so high
And don’t let it get you down
Even when you start to realise
I’m not all you think I am
You know I’m just a waste of time
I’d only let you down if you were mine
You mean more to me than I concede
Maybe you’re the kind of thing I really need
You know you’ve got the whole world at your feet
And I don’t really think I can compete
The seasons short and the years are few
And I don’t wanna take them away from you
And I don’t wanna let you down
Not in the Summer of your life
And don’t let it get you down
Not when you’re flying up so high
I don’t wanna let you down
Knowing that you hold me up so high
And don’t let it get you down
Even when I’m leaving you behind
I’m just not a loving man
But I understand that love is blind
I’d only let you down if you were mine
I’d only let you down if you were mine
