I won't let you down

I will not give you up

gotta have some

faith in the sound

it's the one good

thing that I've got

I won't let you down

so, please don't give me up

'cause I would really

really love to stick around

oh yeah

Heaven knows

I was just a young boy

didn't know

what I wanted to be...

I was every little hungry

schoolgirl's pride and joy

and I guess it

was enough for me

To win the race

a prettier face

brand new clothes

and a big fat place

on your rock and roll TV

But today the way

I play the game

is not the same, no way

think I'm gonna

get me some happy

I think there's somethin'

you should know

I think it's time

I told you so

There's somethin'

deep inside of me

there's someone else

I've got to be

Take back your

picture in a frame

take back your

singin' in the rain

I just hope you understand

sometimes the clothes

do not make the man

All we have to do now

is take these lies

and make them

true somehow

All we have to see

is that I don't belong to you

and you don't belong to me

yeah-yeah

I won't let you down

I will not give you up

gotta have some

faith in the sound

it's the one good

thing that I've got

I won't let you down

so, please don't give me up

'cause I would really

really love to stick around

Heaven knows

we sure had some fun, boy

what a kick

just a buddy and me...

We had every big-shot

goodtime band

on the run, boy

we were livin' in a fantasy

We won the race

got out of the place

I went back home

got a brand new face

for the boys on MTV

But today the way

I play the game has

got to change, oh yeah

now I'm gonna

get myself happy

I think there's somethin'

you should know

I think it's time

I stopped the show

There's somethin'

deep inside of me

there's someone

I forgot to be

Take back your

picture in a frame

don't think that

I'll be back again

I just hope you understand

sometimes the clothes

do not make the man

All we have to do now

is take these lies

and make them

true somehow

All we have to see

is that I don't belong to you

and you don't belong to me

yeah-yeah

I won't let you down

I will not give you up

gotta have some

faith in the sound

it's the one good

thing that I've got

I won't let you down

so, please don't give me up

'cause I would really

really love to stick around

Well, it looks

like the road to heaven

but it feels

like the road to hell

When I knew which side

my bread was buttered

I took the knife as well

Posin' for another picture

everybody's got to sell

but when you shake your ass

they notice fast

and some mistakes

were built to last

That's what you get

I say that's what you get

that's what you get

for changin' your mind

And after all this time

I just hope you understand

sometimes the clothes

do not make the man

All we have to do now

is take these lies

and make them true somehow

all we have to see

is that I don't belong to you

and you don't belong to me

Yeah-yeah

freedom

oh, freedom

my freedom

you got to give

for what you take

Freedom

hold on to my freedom

my freedom

you got to give

for what you take

Yeah...

yeah!

You got to give

for what you give

for what you give

May not be what

you want from me

just the way it's got to be

lose the face now
