Know I let you down, and I'm sorry for that There's a million things that I'd take back Honey, lie down, close your eyes, try to forget We're not always gonna live like this Check to check, month to month, hand to fist... Lie down... try to forget the things I've done All the times I've made us run If we give up now, it'll mean they've won Life's too long to make mistakes Around the corner is where they wait The pain is hard to keep at bay But remember, don't let it slip away There's a lifetime ahead of us Don't Let It Slip Away Just on the other side of this mess Don't let it slip away Hold it tight, hold it close The worst part's over, for the most Just catch your breath... I look at the sacrifices that you've made It makes me wonder why you've always stayed Through the hard times. When it was only me holding you back All we have is each other and our dreams And if we lose either one, what does the other mean? Not a damn thing... and I've seen you put yours on hold Even when your beat, you never fold It won't be long til your heart turns cold Life's too long to make mistakes Around the corner is where they wait The pain is hard to keep at bay But remember, don't let it slip away There's a lifetime ahead of us Just on the other side of this mess Don't let it slip away Hold it tight, hold it close The worst part's over, for the most Just catch your breath...
