Yeah, when I was young, they said I was naive
It was all a misunderstanding
How live could be so demanding
But I learned it well
Yes, the ground would fall right from beneath my feet
I'd pray to God for a decent landing
That I could come up standing
This time
Yeah, but don't let me die tonight
Yeah, the photograph I took of you
It blurred a lot and seemed a bit grainy
On that day that just wouldn't stop raining
I remembered you
Yes, that wasn't rain that was on my face
You left me there, standing and drying
On your soapbox there
Lying to me
Yeah, but don't let me die
No, don't let me die
No, don't let me die
Lord, not tonight
So don't let me die
No, don't let me die
No, don't, don't let me die
Lord, not tonight
So don't let me die
No, don't let me die
No, don't, don't let me die
Lord, not tonight
So don't let me die
No, don't let me die
Lord, no, don't let me die
Oh, not tonight
Don't let me die. (x 8)
