Won't Let You Down Lyrics - Hilltop Hoods

They say you can't love and be wise, but I can pretend 

With you, suddenly if I ever have to surrender you 

I'd fall in a heap, I'd fall on the floor 

And crawl on all fours, for you I'd fall on my sword 

If grief ever darkened my door, you'd light it up 

The way you brighten up a room hits me right in the chest 

It puts the breath inside of my lungs 

It's like I lept in the light of the sun 

And in spite of my weary frown 

You wear a smile that wears me down 

So hear me out, I know that I wasted time 

When I should've been replacing your last name with mine 

And that mistake is mine, believe me 

I wear it like a sunburn, it might disappear but it won't leave me 

I'll carry you on my shoulders, never set you down 

Ferry you through the coldness, never let you down 

I won't let you down, won't let you down again 

I won't let you down, won't let you down again 

Travelling man in the back of a van 

Capturing sands like time through the back of my hand 

If I could hold her for a moment, do a lap of this land 

I'd console you for a moment, then be back in a glance 

But I'm so far since we left for the road 

Chicks I've seen around the heaven and globe 

Searching for the next episode 

Problem is, in letting it go 

Be like letting go of everything you treasure and know 

And whenever I go, I think my chest will explode 

No matter where your heart at, brain leaves death in the crew[?] 

Try and understand, where I lay my head is my home 

And I was in love, before this rap shit was ever in vogue 

But if you feel that you're ever alone 

While standing in the same room as me 

Like set it in stone[?] 

You can't save me, acquainted to this devilish road 

But you're bravely willing to give a hell of a go so... 

I won't let you down, won't let you down again 

I won't let you down, won't let you down again 

I hate that I wasted your touch, your taste 

My shame, can't change, want you to remain 

My angel, my heartbeat, come closer, I'm sorry 

My soul is, yours truly, you know this 

And you know that I 

Won't be shy, talking bout what you're giving me 

Conflict diamond, you shine through the misery 

You walk in a room and light it up, that's just with your entry 

You walk in a room and light it up, like it was four twenty 

Some people never find out what they have 

Only ever find out what they had 

And I could've been one of them, don't know if I still won't 

And that thought hangs around my neck like a millstone 

For real though, it's like I lost you, left you, let you go 

Before I got to get you, or let you know 

That you're my refuge and I need you to see 

The only one I let down more than you is me
