I Won't Let Me Lyrics

WHILE YOU ARE AWAY I'M WAITING
I'M OUT OF MY MIND YOU'RE OUT OF TOWN
YOU KNOW I'M NO STRANGER TO FRUSTRATION
I WON'T BREAK I WON'T LET YOU DOWN
CAUSE I KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG
AND I KNOW I CAN BE STRONG
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN
I LOOK BACK ON MY PAST, I'M DIRTY
I KNOW THAT GUY WOULD ALWAYS LET YOU DOWN
BUT WHILE I AM AWAY DON'T WORRY
JUST KEEP YOUR FAITH IN ME AND HAVE NO DOUBT
CAUSE I KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG
AND I KNOW I CAN BE STRONG
IF THERE'S NO LYING THEN THERE'S NO CRYING
ARRIVE IN YOUR OWN TIME STAY PATIENT
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN
(I'M WAITING)
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN
(YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME,WAITING)
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN
(YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME)
WON'T LET MYSELF BE LED INTO TEMPTATION
IT'S YOU AND ME NOBODY ELSE ALLOWED
WELL YOU KNOW I'M NO STRANGER TO FRUSTRATION
JUST KEEP YOUR FAITH IN ME AND HAVE NO DOUBT
CAUSE I KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG
AND I KNOW I CAN BE STRONG
IF THERE'S NO LYING THERE'S NO CRYING
ARRIVE IN YOUR OWN TIME STAY PATIENT
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN
(I'M WAITING)
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN
(YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME, I'M WAITING)
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN
(YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME)
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN
YOU KNOW I WON'T LET ME LET YOU DOWN

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This sounds more like something they'd play as All than as the Descendents, although it's still a good song. Plus, with all (no pun intended) respect to Chad, Milo is a better singer.

The song is a statement from a boyfriend to a girlfriend that they wont cheat while they're on tour/vacation ETC.
