Hayes Carll – Love Don't Let Me Down lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've never been the lucky one
Watched my dreams all turning round
While they left me alone
Thinking they'd come someday
Well, it turns out I was wrong
Time don't wait for anyone
Now I stand here like a school kid hoping
That it's not late
There goes my heart again
As foolish as it's ever been
Always leading me some place that I just couldn't stay
But I'm not gonna look behind
There's nothing there I wanna find
I just stand here and face you and promise
To not run away

[Chorus]
Under the sun
There ain't nothing new
There's lovers and leavers, moments forgotten
And dreams that don't ever come true
Even though I'm afraid
I'm gonna stand my ground
And if it's not asking too much
Love, don't let me down

[Verse 2]
Now here I am in front of you
Just hoping that my best will do
I'm a good man, loving man
That just needs someone to hold
I can see it in your face
Your love can fill up this empty space
In the years up ahead
Don't have to feel so damn alone

[Chorus]
Under the sun
Oh, there ain't nothing new
And maybe it's crazy to keep chasing after
These dreams that don't ever come true
Even though I'm afraid
I'm gonna stand my ground
And if it's not asking too much
Love, don't let me down
