Let Me Down Lyrics


I think I might be a fortune teller
I read your face just like a letter
The funny thing about forever
Is it comes with a side of - never never
I cant buy into what you're selling
And no its not that I don't want it
Believe me I'd love to close my eyes, enjoy the ride
But you reek of indecision and I...
I know, I know, I know,
I know, I know, I know
You're only gonna let me down
When it counts, you'll countdown
You're only gonna turn me out
As I burn, you'll burn out
You're only gonna make me feel so crazy
Right when I think we could be something
You'll go and let me down, let me down
I am too smart to let you in here

But I'm just dumb enough to linger
I wanna think that you'll be different
Smoking mirrors are so clever clever
I pretend that things aren't so bad
That what you say will actually happen
I've been dying to open my eyes
See you try instead of always leaving me out to dry
You're only gonna let me down
When it counts, you'll countdown
You're only gonna turn me out
As I burn, you'll burn out
You're only gonna make me feel so crazy
Right when I think we could be something
You'll go and let me down, let me down
I need you to be there when you say you're gonna be
I care too much and you'll care enough to leave
I want some place to rest my head without worrying
It's not fair, It's not fair, It's not fair, It's not fair
It's not fair to me, cause I know, I know
You're only gonna let me down
When it counts, you'll countdown
You're only gonna turn me out
As I burn, you'll burn out
You're only gonna make me feel so crazy
Right when I think we could be something
You'll go and let me down, let me down
You're only gonna let me down
When it counts, you'll countdown
You're only gonna turn me out
As I burn, you'll burn out
You're only gonna make me feel so crazy
Right when I think we could be something
You'll go and let me down, let me down

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Soledad Brothers are an American blues punk group from Maumee, Ohio. Consisting of Benjamin Swank on drums, Johnny Walker on guitar and vocals, and Oliver Henry (who was recruited just before the release of their second album) on sax and guitar, they took their name from a trio of convicted felons, George Jackson, Fleeta Drumgo, and John Clutchette who were incarcerated at Soledad Prison and killed by police fire. They are known for their very energetic, loud sound.

Their debut self-titled album was engineered by Jack White of The White Stripes, with whom they shared an apartment in Detroit.

Singer Johnny Walker now resides in Covington, Kentucky and has started the band Cut in the Hill Gang

Benjamin Swank is now working at Jack White's record label, Third Man Records in Nashville. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
