In your recovery room
After they operate on you
Tell you, "Get well soon."
I hope you do
I try to lighten the mood
It's all I can ever do
But I'm all torn up too
Like it was me instead of you
But I'm not coming down
No, I'm not coming down
Oh, I'm not coming down now
'Cause from that altitude
It was such a lovely view
Guess what they say is true
It's just over way too soon
I try to hold on to
Your laugh, the afternoon
But I'm just passing through
And it's just over way too soon
And I'm not coming down
No, I'm not coming down
Oh, I'm not coming down now
Oh, I'm not coming down
No, I'm not coming down
Oh, I'm not coming down now
'Cause when she opens up her eyes
I'll be there by her side
I'll be there by her side
I'll bleed until I'm dry
Beneath the cold fluorescent lights
I'll be there by her side
If she makes it through the night
I'll be there by her side
And I don't need this now
Oh, I don't need this now
Oh, I don't need this now
How? How?
Oh, I don't need this now
Oh, I don't need this now
Oh, I don't need this now
How? How?
Oh, I don't need this now
Oh, I don't need this now
Oh, I don't need this now
How? How?
