They tell me you've touched the face of God 
Like the sound of a rope cracking on your neck 
They tell me you'd never give it up 
Like the song that was soul singing in your head 

So honey please don't let go 
Or you'll fall into the dead of night 
So honey please don't let go 
You'd better learn to fly 
'Cause they're gonna point you up at the sky 

The more that you want it 
The more that you need it 
I know you'll be by my side 
In the heat of the moment when the thunder and [bad word] 
I know that you'll be by my side 

That loving man ain't no rolling stone 
Of the sound of the [bad word] I'm gonna set you free 
I talk to him on the telephone 
These are the words he gave to me 

So honey please don't let go 
Or you'll fall into the dead of night 
So honey please don't let go 
You better learn to fly 
'Cause they're gonna point you up at the sky 

The more that you want it 
The more that you need it 
I know you'll be by my side 
In the heat of the moment when the thunder and [bad word] 
I know that you'll be by my side 

The more that you want it 
The more that you need it 
I know you'll be by my side 
In the heat of the moment when the thunder and [bad word] 
I know that you'll be by my side
