I will let you down, When you need me
I will let you down, When you don't
I will let you down, When you're friendless
I will let you down, When your known
Believe me
It's the hardest thing
To leave this skin
And these bones
But girl I'll try
A trillion times
Because I love you alone
I will let you down, In the summer
I will let you down' In the spring
I will let you down, When the rains moan
I will let you down, When sunlight sings
Believe me
It's the hardest thing
To leave this skin
And these bones
But girl I'll try
A trillion times
Because I love you alone
I love you alone
I will let you down, With my actions
I will let you down, With my tongue
I will let you down, With my story
I will let you down, With my song
Believe me
It's the hardest thing
To leave this skin
And these bones
But girl I'll try
A trillion times
Because I love you
Will you stand
By the man
Who was against his skin
And his bones
But girl I'll try
It takes a trillion times
Because I love you alone
