The lonely life

by City And Colour

lyricscopy.com
What if I did not love you?
Where would that leave me
Would I wander through the avenues
Under appall of misery

Would I be face down in the gutter
With cheap whiskey on my breath
The lonely life of a writer
Whose words could not pay his debts

Singin´ please don´t, please don´t pass me by
I am alive, oh can´t you see?
That I´ve been blinded completely
Please don´t, please don´t pass me by
I am alive, oh can´t you see?
That I am pleading for your mercy

What if we became strangers?
Would you notice my face in a crowd?
And you could you hear the sorrow in my voice?
Helplessly crying your name out loud

Would I be searching for a savior?
Burned and burning with regret
The lonely life of a writer
Only if one last desperate request

Singin´ please don´t, please don´t pass me by
I am alive, oh can´t you see?
That I´ve been blinded completely
Please don´t, please don´t pass me by
I am alive, oh can´t you see?
That I am pleading for your mercy

I´ve been on the lamb
Being hunted, somethin´ fierce
They say time and time, it wait´s for no man
But I was just hopin´
These storm filled skies would clear

Please don´t, please don´t pass me by
Please don´t, please don´t pass me by
Please don´t, please don´t pass me by
I am alive, oh can´t you see?
That I am pleading for your mercy
