If I lay face Down on the ground Would you walk all over me? Have we learned What we set out to learn? Well then, love, we will see [Chorus:] Now, don't drown in your tears, babe Push your head toward the air Now, don't drown in your tears, babe I will always be there When you fall and you Can't find your way Push your hand up to the sky I will run just to To be by your side Don't you ever bat an eye [Chorus] But I will tear the price from your head And keep you from harm - that's what you said There's people climbing out of their cars Lining the roadside, trying to glimpse at the dead [Chorus]
