Saint Etienne - Don'T Back Down lyrics

Just as I walked away,

I turned to hear you say:

(Spoken) "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.

(Spoken) "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

(Spoken) "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.
