If I Am - Nine Days

So you're standin on the ledge, it looks like you might fall
Its so far down or maybe you were thinkin about jumpin
Now you could have it all, if you learned a little patience
For though I cannot fly, I'm not content to crawl
So give me a little credit, have in me a little faith
I wanna be with you forever if tomorrow's not too late
But its always too late when you got nothin, so you say
You should never let the sun set on tomorrow, before the sun rises today

Chorus :
If I am, another waste of everything you dreamed of, I will let you down
If I am, only here to watch you as you suffer, I will let you down

So you're walkin on the edge and you wait your turn to fall
But you're so far gone that you don't see the hands upheld to catch you
And you could find the fault in the heart that you've been handed
For though you cannot fly, you're not content to crawl
And its always too late when you got nothin, so you say
But we should never let the sun set on tomorrow, before the sun rises

[Chorus]

So you're standin on the ledge, it looks like you might fall

[Chorus]

The answers we find are never what we had in mind
So we make it up as we go along
You don't talk of dreams when I won't mention tomorrow
And we won't make those promises we can't keep

I will never leave you
I will not let you down
I will never leave you
I will not let you down
