"Don't Back Down" lyrics

Just as I walked away
I turned to hear you say
"The words nearly got carried away by the wind
Of that, I can make out this much"

Don't back down
Don't back down, this time
Brown eyes and cider-bright
Don't back down
Don't back down, this time
Sometimes I wonder why

Love-town and fortis-green
Your mother hated me
"Caught in a car outside the O.D.
And rain pouring down the windscreen"

Don't back down
Don't back down this time
Brown eyes and cider-bright
Don't back down
Don't back down, this time
Sometimes I wonder why

That summer felt so long
I never felt so strong
"And then, a suddent craving
That I might want to see you again"

Don't back down
Don't back down this time
Brown eyes and cider-bright
Don't back down
Don't back down, this time
Sometimes I wonder why
...
