Don`t Let It Bring You Down Lyrics

Eede/MacMichael



Make me a promise you can't keep 

Tell a joke that's not too deep

'Cos I'm out of double meanings



Throw me a rope that I can't reach

As you lay back on your beach

I'm not waving, only drowning

But don't let it bring you down

Don't let it bring you down



Who asked you for your advice?

Who asked you to interfere?

All my life you kept the lights out

Now it seems so clear

Who asked you to criticise?

I don't need no volunteer

So when they come to put the fires out

I might not be here



Don't let it bring you down

Don't let it bring you down



Buy me a beer that I can taste

Like the kisses that you waste

'Cos I'm out of legal tender



Big deal, there's a little rust in my piano

A few more lines upon my face

There's corrosion in my fingers

But don't let it bring you down

Don't let it bring you down

 

Who asked you for your advice?

Who asked you to interfere?

All my life you kept the fire on

It still gets cold in here

Who asked you to sympathise?

I don't need your volant tears

So when they come to turn the lights out

I might not be here



Don't let it bring you down

Don't let it bring you down
