  • When life leaves you high and dry
    I'll be at your door tonight if you need help, if you need help
    I'll shut down the city lights,
    I'll lie, cheat, I'll beg and bribe to make you well, to make you well
    When enemies are at your door I'll carry you way from more
    If you need help, if you need help
    Your hope dangling by a string
    I'll share in your suffering to make you well, to make you well

    Give me reasons to believe,
    That you would do the same for me

    And I would do it for you, for you
    Baby I'm not moving on
    I love you long after you're gone
    For you, for you
    You would never sleep alone
    I love you long after you're gone
    And long after you're gone, gone, gone

    When you fall like a statue
    I'm gon' be there to catch you
    Put you on your feet, you on your feet
    And if your well is empty
    Not a thing will prevent me
    Tell me what you need, what do you need

    I surrender honestly
    You've always done the same for me

    So I would do it for you, for you
    Baby I'm not moving on
    I love you long after you're gone
    For you, for you
    You would never sleep alone
    I love you long after you're gone
    And long after you're gone, gone, gone

    You're my back bone, you're me cornerstone
    You're my crutch when my legs stop moving
    You're my headstart, you're my rugged heart
    You're the pokes that I've always needed
    Like a drum baby don't stop beating
    Like a drum baby don't stop beating
    Like a drum baby don't stop beating
    Like a drum my heart never stops beating

    For you, for you
    Baby I'm not moving on
    I love you long after you're gone
    For you, for you
    You would never sleep alone
    I love you long after you're gone
    For you, for you
    Baby I'm not moving on
    I love you long after you're gone
    For you, for you
    You would never sleep alone
    I love you long, long after you're gone

    Like a drum baby don't stop beating
    Like a drum baby don't stop beating
    Like a drum baby don't stop beating
    Like a drum my heart never stops beating for you
    And long after you're gone, gone, gone
    I love you long after you're gone gone gone Writer/s: Derek A. E. Fuhrmann, Gregg Steven Wattenberg, Todd Sherman Clark
