No Way Out Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Saw a group of people forming
Round a figure lying down
And someone runs to make a phone call
And the man kneels on the ground
The man kneels on the ground
There's a tightening in my chest
I know that I'm drawn in
Oh God let it not be you
[Chorus]
Don't leave us
Don't leave like this
Don't leave me here again
I'm not quitting on you
No one else
You're not quitting on us
No running out
[Verse 2]
The color in your shirt is darkening
Against the paleness of your skin
I remember how you held the goldfish
Swimming around in a plastic bag
Swimming around in a plastic bag
You held it up so high
In the bright lights of the fair
It slipped and fell
We looked everywhere
[Chorus]
Don't leave us (Your eyes are bright, your blood is warm)
Don't leave like this (Your heart is strong, you're holding on)
Don't leave me here again (I feel your pulse, I hold your hand)
I'm not quitting on you
There's no one else
You're not quitting on us
There's no way out
No way out
[Chorus]
Don't leave us
Don't leave like this
Don't leave me here again (I feel your pulse, I hold your hand)
I'm not quitting on you
There's no one else
You're not quitting on us
No running away no way out
