If there is so much to live for... 
Tell me, how dome it's so hard to stay alive 
Because it's a great time to feel just fine, 
But we all just ain't that type 

Together, down on our luck 
Because it is so hard [bad word] by 
Well, it's a new chance tonight to get things right 
Well, the odds they ain't never on my side 

Because the light behind your eyes - 
Well, it never shined so bright - 
As it did the day that you left town 
The moon, the stars, the sky 
They couldn't bring you to my side 
So, go on and lay me down

Because the light behind your eyes - 
Well, it never burned so bright - 
As it did the day that you left town 
The moon, the stars, the sky - 
Couldn't keep you by my side 
So, go on and lay me down
