Take a break in between the lines
I gotta give up the ghost
That's not to say that it didn't arise
In fact it happened lots

But if it gets better
Then at least we'll know
And you can give me credit
For keeping us afloat
I think we shouldn't ever
Ever hesitate
Yeah we're too clever
To throw this thing away

And I'll try to give you shelter
And let you know
That I need your presence
No I don't want you to go

I don't want to let you go
No I won't let it go

Looked around, I couldn't read the room
And the crowd didn't move
And when they spoke, it was an inside joke
Well that's just my excuse

But if it gets better
Then at least we'll know
And you can give me credit
For keeping us afloat
I think we shouldn't ever
Ever hesitate
Yeah we're too clever
To throw this thing away

And I'll try to give you shelter
And let you know
That I need your presence
No I don't want you to go
I just need your presence
And I don't need you to go
I just need your presence
No I don't want you to go

No I don't want to let you go
No I won't let it go
No I don't want to let you go
No I won't let it go
