I warned you
I tried to tell you
But you wouldn't listen
And now you're sad
I warmed you
There as i held you
But you couldn't listen
And now it's bad
But don't you despair
No reason to fret
I'm still standing here
And i can forget
Yeah i can forgive
But you've got to live
And don't let them get you down
Don't let them get you down
You've got to swim or you'll drown
So don't let them get you down
I pulled you
Out of the water
'cause i saw you sinking
Into the deep
And i hold you
Just like a father
There's no need for running
You're safe with me
So don't ever despair
Don't live in regret
I'm still standing here
And i can forget
Yeah i can forgive
'cause you've got to live
And don't let them get you down
Don't let them get you down
You've got to swim or you'll drown
Yeah
Don't let them get you down
Don't let them get you down
You've got to swim or you'll drown
Don't let them get you down
Don't let them get you down
