When life leaves you high and dry I'll be at your door…
“When life leaves you high and dry I'll be at your door tonight If you need help, if you need help. I'll shut down the city lights, I'll lie, cheat, I'll beg and bribe To make you well, to make you well. When enemies are at your door I'll carry you away from war If you need help, if you need help.Your hope dangling by a string I'll share in your suffering To make you well, to make you well. Give me reasons to believe That you would do the same for me. And I would do it for you, for you. Baby, I'm not moving on I'll love you long after you're gone. For you, for you. You will never sleep alone. I'll love you long after you're gone And long after you're gone, gone, gone. When you fall like a statue I'm gon' be there to catch you Put you on your feet, you on your feet. And if your well is empty Not a thing will prevent me. Tell me what you need, what do you need? I surrender honestly. You've always done the same for me. So I would do it for you, for you. Baby, I'm not moving on,”
