Don’t You Let the Darkness Drag You Down

Lyrics

Don’t you let the darkness drag you down
Dawn’s early light always comes around
Just take it slow
There’s still a long ways to go
Don’t you burn your candle at both ends
I don’t want for us to be just friends
I’d be so happy
To be so sad with you
Maybe it’s all those years
That keep piling up on me
I seem to shed a lot more tears
When the leaves in Autumn disappear
Every life is filled with some regrets
Lots of coffee, lots of cigarettes
I’m not a schemer
But oh I’m such a dreamer
Trying to find my way back to your heart
Baby how about a brand new start
Give me all your frowns
And I’ll turn them upside down
Maybe it’s all those years
They keep piling up on me
I seem to shed a lot more tears
When the leaves in Autumn disappear
Don’t you let the darkness drag you down
Dawn’s early light always comes around
Just take it slow
There’s still a long ways to go
Don’t you burn your candle at both ends
I don’t want for us to be just friends
I’d be so happy
To be so sad with you
Maybe it’s all those years
They keep piling up on me
No I don’t want to be free
I want you to love me
