Can we maybe start over?
It's the last thing I told her now
I can't sleep, I'm wide awake in bed alone somehow
You'll see me around
In a dream you came over
And we made the move out west
Then it got hazy when you said it's for the best
But I, all I need tonight is you
If I turn my back on everybody
'Cause all the faith that I had was already inside me
I'd pray that somebody'd show some empathy
It's too late to say sorry
As the clock strikes 12:39
Careless Whisper plays in the background on this winter night
I'm far from fine
Don't let me down (don't let me down)
Please help me find the simple words to say to change your mind
It's all I need tonight (yeah)
If I turn my back on everybody (turn my back on everybody)
'Cause all the faith that I had was already inside me
I'd pray that somebody'd show some empathy
Don't let me down (don't let me down)
Don't let me down
Help me find the simple things that'll let you know just what I mean
Don't let me down
Don't let me down
Help me find the simple things that'll let you know just what I mean
Just what I mean
If I turn my back on everybody (turn my back on everybody)
'Cause all the faith that I had was already inside me
I'd pray that somebody'd show some empathy
If I turn my back on everybody (turn my back on everybody)
'Cause all the faith that I had was already inside me
I'd pray that somebody'd show some empathy
Don't let me down
