lyrics

Lean into me, right now
Rest your head on me, right now
And though time takes us away
Well we’ve both got debts to pay, right now
Pour a glass with me, right now
Cut your hair with me, right now

And the devil wants to win
No we can’t give in to sin
And though I’m leaving you today
We will never part our ways

So write this down and shake the dust from this town
You’ve been with me from the beginning and we’re not stopping now
I called you friend
On me depend, right now

Pack your bags with me, right now
Let the world hate me, right now
And though time takes us away
Well we’ve both got debts to pay, right now

Cry a little with me, right now
Cause you can’t bear everything, right now

Oh and the devil wants to win
No we can’t give in to sin
And though I’m leaving you today
We will never part our ways

So write this down and shake the dust from this town
You’ve been with me from the beginning and we’re not stopping now
I called you friend
On me depend, right now
