Little sister with the sad eyes
Tell me why you crying all night
Dry your tears in the sunrise
It all looks different in the daylight
Just when you don't think you can get by
When it all comes tumbling down
Never forget that you can rely on me
Heavy weather on the skyline
The sea is darker than a red wine
The wind is wailing like a banshee
And I don't know what's coming over me
Just when you don't think you can get by
When it all comes tumbling down
Never forget that you can rely on me
Where's the fire and where's the spark?
Where's the flame to chase away the dark?
Let fly your wishes, unchain your heart
Or this cruel world will tear your soul apart
Just when you don't think you can get by
When it all comes tumbling down
Never forget that you can rely ...
Just when you don't think you can get by
When it all comes tumbling down
Never forget that you can rely ...
You got a whole lot things to learn
You got a whole lot of people to see
You got a whole lot of money to earn
You got to know you can rely on me
You got a whole lot of seeds to sow
You got a whole lot of places to be
You got a whole lot of shapes to throw
You got to know you can rely on me
You got a whole lot things to learn
You got a whole lot of people to see
You got a whole lot of money to earn
You got to know you can rely on me
You got a whole lot of seeds to sow
You got a whole lot of places to be
You got a whole lot of shapes to throw
You got to know you can rely on me
