Verse 1

On this day, i'm walking a fine line

Imagining my minds fine, ok

Tougher than nylon

Safe as a house on the way

Chorus 1

My little darling

Don't you cry, it makes you look older

C'mon now hey, don't you be down

I want you around

I want you around

I want you arooooouuunnnnddd

Verse 2

Here's my plan, i'm losing the halo

It's time to lay low man, some plan

Come the high water

I'll be your drowning man

Chorus 2

My little darling

Don't you cry, it makes you look older

C'mon now hey, don't you be down

I want you around

I want you around

I want you arooooouuunnnnddd

I want you around

I want you arooooouuunnnnddd

Bridge

While i'm doing battle with myself and me

I'm doing battle with gravity

And i can't face myself alone

I can't bear to be alone with me

Hey don't you be down

I want you around

I want you around

I want you arooooouuunnnnddd

Repeat to fade
