One day you're born and everything begins You don't know yet what's coming through the years (What's coming through) And here I am, just fading more each day Alone and desperate with nothing to say (Nothing to say) The worst is when I meet somebody new I turn red and pretend I got the flu And since I've not embarrassed myself enough Freaky things will come out of my mouth You're my sugar-coated pill from now I want you by my side So please, don't let me down You're my sugar-coated pill from now My life is just a mess Can you please not let me down? So we could be the only ones tonight Like if we've always been 'til now And I will hate you if you leave me tonight (tonight) So you better stay around Every time I wanna do things right But I end up ruining everything And when I think about the time I get I realize it's already too late I work hard to always put myself behind And all I get never comforts me enough So since you're here, baby, with me tonight I really need you to hear about that You're my sugar-coated pill from now I want you by my side So please, don't let me down You're my sugar-coated pill from now My life is just a mess Can you please not let me down? So we could be the only ones tonight Like if we've always been 'til now And I will hate you if you leave me tonight So you better stay around ♪ I don't wanna hold you back I don't wanna lock you up But I ain't gonna let you down 'Cause I just need to feel alright I don't wanna hold you back I don't wanna lock you up But I ain't gonna let you down Please, just let me hold you back ♪ You're my sugar-coated pill from now I want you by my side So please, don't let me down You're my sugar-coated pill from now My life is just a mess Can you please not let me down? So we could be the only ones tonight Like if we've always been 'til now And I will hate you if you leave me tonight So you better stay around
