|
when life leaves you high and dry |
|
i'll be at your door tonight |
|
if you need help, if you need help. |
|
i'll shut down the city lights, |
|
i'll lie, cheat, i'll beg and bribe |
|
to make you well, to make you well. |
|
when enemies are at your door |
|
i'll carry you away from war |
|
if you need help, if you need help. |
|
your hope dangling by a string |
|
i'll share in your suffering |
|
to make you well, to make you well. |
|
give me reasons to believe |
|
that you would do the same for me. |
|
and i would do it for you, you. |
|
baby, i'm not moving on |
|
i love you long after you're gone. |
|
for you, you. |
|
you will never sleep alone. |
|
i love you long after you're gone |
|
and long after you're gone, gone, gone. |
|
when you fall like a statue |
|
i'm gon' be there to catch you |
|
put you on your feet, you on your feet. |
|
and if your well is empty |
|
not a thing will prevent me. |
|
tell me what you need, what do you need? |
|
i surrender honestly. |
|
you've always done the same for me. |
|
so i would do it for you, you. |
|
baby, i'm not moving on, |
|
i love you long after you're gone. |
|
for you, you. |
|
you will never sleep alone. |
|
i love you long after you're gone |
|
and long after you're gone, gone, gone. |
|
you're my back bone. |
|
you're my cornerstone. |
|
you're my crutch when my legs stop moving. |
|
you're my head start. |
|
you're my rugged heart. |
|
you're the poultice that i've always needed. |
|
like a drum, baby, don't stop beating. |
|
like a drum, baby, don't stop beating. |
|
like a drum, baby, don't stop beating. |
|
like a drum my heart never stops beating... |
