Testo : Jim Diamond (Ph.D.) – I Won’t Let You Down
You ask me if I’m happy here
No doubt about it
You ask me if my love is clear
Want me to shout it
Gave you the best years of my life
I know I failed to treat you right
Woman
Don’t let me out of here
Don’t let me out of here
I won’t let you down
Won’t let you down again
I won’t let you down
Won’t let you down again
You say our love is running one way
Coming from your side
No help from me to see it through
To beat the high tide
Take me and chain me if you please
Woman
Don’t help me dig deeper my grave
Woman
Don’t let me out of here
Don’t let me out of here
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 won’t let you down
Won’t let you down again
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 won’t let you down
Won’t let you down again
I won’t let you down
Won’t let you down again
I won’t let you down
Won’t let you down again
