"I Never Left You" lyrics

"I Never Left You"

You struggled
You made a fist of your youth
And in the days before your latest great designs
You got yours
Succeeded most of half the time
And there were days
When all the breaks flew you by
No sense you following the best laid plans
Things done in earnest never got to stand
Ain't it amazing just how everything changes
When the world takes two steps backwards
Backwards

There's no emotion in a world without you
And I never left you
With my devotions like a light inside you
And I'll never let you down

You want it
You need to justify your times
And there'll be days when all the crazies take the prize
When the Garden of Eden's dust is blown away
We'll be waiting at the gate to do the time
No sense in following the best laid plans
Things done in earnest never get to stand
Hey it's amazing just how everything changes
When the world takes a few steps backwards
Backwards

There's no emotion in a world without you
And I never left you
With my devotion like a light inside you
And I'll never let you down

You know I hope it springs eternal
From the faces of these angels here
I can't let you
Down into the dungeons of a life lived under fear and pleading
I can't let you go

There's no emotion in a world without you
And I never left you
With my devotion like a light inside you
And I'll never let you down
By the light of the moon our love alone to hide you
And I'll never let you down
