Lyrics

All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down, my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm coming down
And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
But I know I'm on a losing streak
As I pass down my old street
And if you wanna show, then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
And baby, ooh (sha-la-la-la-la-la- la)
If heaven falls, I'm coming too
Just like you said (sha-la-la-la-la-la-la)
If you leave my life I'm better off dead
All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down, my love
Like a cat in a bag, waiting to drown
This time I'm coming down
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
And baby, ooh (sha-la-la-la-la-la)
If heaven falls, I'm coming too
Just like you said (sha-la-la-la-la-la)
You leave my life, I'm better off dead
But if you wanna show
Then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again, oh, Lord
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again, oh, Lord
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again, oh, Lord
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again, oh, Lord
I'm never coming down, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
I'm never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
I'm never coming down, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
I'm never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Oh yeah, oh Lord
Oh yeah, oh Lord
Oh yeah, oh Lord
Oh yeah, oh Lord
