Won't Let You Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I've got a new song for you
One that I wrote yesterday
It doesn't have a tune
In fact it's so new it ain't got a name
For that life of whiskey and wine
Was so fine for awhile
Oh, with the years
And the times and the styles
Then you walked in the room
Cut through the gloom
You made a new mood
It wasn't too soon
And I won't let you down, I won't let you down
Even though I may not know everything that's around
And don't let me down, don't let me down
I'll give you my word, my word is all that I have
Now I went to see the gypsy queen
Just to find out where I stand
She said you don't need anything
You've got it all in the palm of your hand
For that life of whiskey and wine
Was so fine for awhile
Oh, with the years
And the times and the styles
Since you walked in the room
Cut through the gloom
You made a new mood
It wasn't too soon
And I won't let you down, I won't let you down
Even though I may not know everything that's around
And don't let me down, don't let me down
I'll give you my word, my word is all that I have
