Please Don't Let Me Down Lyrics

Without a reason there is nothing left to say.
You pray for division, but hope gets in the way.
I must say, "Please don't let me down."
"Please don't let me down."

How long I, I've been willing.
How long before I breathe you out?
How long I, I've been willing
How long before I breathe you out?

Without a reason there is nothing left to say.
Hopeless provision, the tongue gets in the way.
Still, I say, "Please don't let me down."
When the man comes he'll pay to say,
"The happenstance gets in the way!"

How long I, I've been willing.
How long before I breathe you out?
How long I, I've been willing.
How long before I breathe you out?

And if the sun beats down on me,
It would be a shade of halo that you've never, never, never, never, never...

"Please don't let me down."
"Please don't let me down."

How long I, I've been willing
How long before I breathe you out?
How long I, I've been willing
How long before I breathe you out?
How long I, I've been willing
How long before I breathe you out?
How long I, I've been willing
How long before I breathe you out?

"Please don't let me down."

How long I, I've been willing.
How long before I breathe you out?
How long I, I've been willing
How long before I breathe you out?

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.
