Let You Down Lyrics

A world without you here
An unreflecting mirror
His words were so sincere
He left you standing there

Oh, I'll never let you down
While I'm still around

His words were never meant
Your one last tear's been spent
You'll never be content
In a world as big as this

Oh, I'll never let you down
While I'm still around

When you were lost, who was it who found you

Oh, I'll never let you down
While I'm still around
Oh, you've just been found
Oh, I'll never 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 is one of the best songs on the cd! This is such a romantic song. It is every girl's dream to have a wonderful guy come rescue her from her past.

i really really like this song. it paints the picture of a very very vulnerable girl who has been broken and is afraid to love again and the writer saying you don't have to worry take it slow, ill be there for you ill never let you down. Everybody has been hurt before and this is a great song describing the pain from the other side... having to witness it.

I intepreted the song lyrics differently, maybe because this is sorta how a few relationships happened with me anyway, I took the song as the singer seeing a girl he liked, a girl he treated wonderfully, who he was always there for, yet she was always with somebody else, somebody who "left her standing there". Then he shows how "his words were never meant" yet he's "still around" sort of saying, this is what you've been dealing with all alone, yet I've been right here waiting.
