Of standing straight while the world is reeling Don't leave me here alone You're as close as it gets to home Don't look down You might fall Life made rookies of us all In our finest year Don't wait up We'll be fine Somehow we might get it right In our finest year I am hopeful full of doubt And I am trying to work this whole thing out So how can you just sit there sleeping? When your world's on fire and your chest is beating And I want to think you feel the same Don't look down You might fall Life made rookies of us all In our finest year Don't wait up We'll be fine Somehow we might get it right In our finest year And this moment While you're breathing If the future leaves you needing Will you be the one who stays? As your life just slips away Don't leave me here alone You're as close as it gets to home I'll be there If you fall Love made suckers of us all Don't look down You might fall Life made rookies of us all In our finest year Don't wait up We'll be fine Somehow we might get it right In our finest year
