If I had a love that was so true
The I wouldn’t have to make do
With the half a love that I have found
That is tear in me down to the ground

Dont let me down, dont let me down
Dont let me down, tell me love can be found

If I had a love that was so real
And who would know the way I feel
I want all your love today
Just to keep me from fading away

Dont let me down, dont let me down
Dont let me down, tell me love can be found
