Down Lyrics

Baby don't you cry

I know you feel

A little bit lost tonight

But I promise to stay

By you side and

Find a place for your head

We'll find a way

Out of this mess

Just rest your head

Right here on my chest

Just close your eyes

And drift away

I'll watch over you

It will be ok

So down

This is only temporary

Count down to something

Just a bit less scary

I will play til my

Fingers bleed

Or at least until

Your fears recede

Calm down and I'll sing you

To your dreams

Stare into your eyes

See the pain that's

Welled up inside

From all those years spent

Faking a smile

While silently you

Counted the lines

I can tell your scared

How could someone

Ever really care

Well, baby let the words

Of this song

Wash away every time

You've been wrong

So down

This is only temporary

Count down to something

Just a bit less scary

I will play til my

Fingers bleed

Or at least until

Your fears recede

Calm down and I'll sing you

To your dreams

I'll show you

Over and over again

That I'll do anything

Just to mend

That battered heart of yours

And show just how much I adore

And love til

I take my last breathe until

The very end
