Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Two dozen other dirty lovers

Must be a sucker for it

Cry, cry but I don't need my mother

Just hold my hand while I come to a decision on it

[Chorus]

Sooner or later

Your legs give way, you hit the ground

Save it for later

Don't run away and let me down

Sooner or later

You'll hit the deck, you'll get found out

Save it for later

Don't run away and let me down, you let me down

[Verse 2]

Black air and seven seas all rotten through

But what can you do?

I don't know how I'm meant to act with all of you lot

Sometimes I don't try

I just now-now-now-now-now-now-now-now-now-now-now

Now-now-now-now-now-now-now-now-now-now-now

[Chorus]

Sooner or later

Your legs give way, you hit the ground

Save it for later

Don't run away and let me down

Sooner or later

You'll hit the deck, you'll get found out

Save it for later

Don't run away and let me down, you let me down

You run away, run away and let me down

[Verse 3]

Two dozen other stupid reasons

Why we should suffer for this

Don't bother trying to explain them

Just hold my hand while I come to a decision on it

[Chorus]

Sooner or later

Your legs give way, you hit the ground

Save it for later

Don't run away and let me down

Sooner or later

You'll hit the deck, you'll get found out

Save it for later

Don't run away and let me down, you let me down

You run away, run away, run away, run away, run away, run away

And let me down
