Turn on a bedroom light Though the sun shines Follow a silver gull fading into the pale pink sky Blow out the candles Before the night comes So, you don't see me crying For the life lies ahead Don't let me down Just pull me close and burn me down Tell me that I can change the world Don't let me down Just pull me close and burn me down Tell me that I can change the world You take a load off my mind Stray dog barks at the girl Who stares at the stars And now, I take my guitar then write a song for her I know I can't have everything I wish for But I just stick my head in the sand I want to melt into the sky Don't let me down Just pull me close and burn me down Tell me that I can change the world Don't let me down Just pull me close and burn me down Tell me that I can change the world Don't let me down Just pull me close and burn me down Tell me that I can change the world Don't let me down Just pull me close and burn me down Tell me that I can change the world You take a load off my mind
