Beyond The Pines – Memo lyrics

Do not demean me, my friend
I promise only to help you
I swear tonight is not our end
And I know you walk alone
But let me take your hand
And guide to your home
If it pains you to see me
I will leave right now
So I can never
Cause your hurt

But if i engrossed you
Like you engrossed me
I can promise my love
So your heart won't meet the dirt
Your heart won't meet the dirt

And I promise that I won't break
I promise that I won't drown
The weight of your problems
Cannot bring me down
To the ocean floor
(To the ocean floor)

When I fell in love with you
I fell in love with fire
It wasn't the soft features
It was the heat of your desire
And with a burning heart like mine
I cannot let you sink
But even with your strong footing
You're standing on the brink
I will not let you fall
Even If you jump

But if i engrossed you
Like you engrossed me
I can promise my love
So your heart won't meet the dirt
Your heart won't meet the dirt

And I promise that I won't break
I promise that I won't drown
The weight of your problems
Cannot bring me down
To the ocean floor
(To the ocean floor)

Your eyes used to make me feel at home
But now without your heart I am just homesick

Oh how it pains me to know
That the fire in your heart left your body through your wrist

Don't demean me my friend
Tonight is not our end

And I promise that I won't break
I promise that I won't drown
The weight of your problems
Cannot bring me down to the ocean floor

To the ocean floor
