Lyrics

Don’t tear me down
I’m trying to make a go at living in this new town
Don’t let the lights go out
I’m trying to make a habit of hanging around

Out in the open, under the light
Away from the crowd, away from the fight
Trying to find what’s left, trying to get right
With a friend of mine

Don’t tear me down
I’m trying to make a go at living in this new town
Don’t let the lights go out
I’m trying to make a habit of hanging around

Jumping off the shoulders of giants, here I come
Back down to earth, before it’s gone
Follow the shadow ‘til I find the sun
Then I’ll be home

Don’t tear me down
I’m trying to make a go at living in this new town
Don’t let the lights go out
I’m trying to make a habit of hanging around

Don’t tear me down
I’m trying to make a go at living in this new town
Don’t let the lights go out
I’m trying to make a habit of hanging around
I’m trying to make a habit of hanging around

Don’t tear me down
