Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tell you all my fears
Losing loves and fading years
But I'm still saving all my tears
They wouldn't go to waste
[Chorus]
No matter what you do to turn it down
No matter what you do to hide the sound
All your clocks are slowly counting down
Love will save us, love will save us
[Verse 2]
Watch the world outside
Your memories fade and people die
But I'll keep dreams alive
[Chorus]
No matter what you do to turn it down
No matter what you do to hide the sound
All your clocks are slowly counting down
Love will save us, love will save us
[PostChorus]
Darkness, night time
Diamonds, be mine
Darkness, night time
Diamonds, be mine
[Verse 3]
Under the mountains, quarry towns
Spent ten years there underground
To find what sparkles in the light
Hotel rooms, and taxi cabs
Forgotten memories, all we have
Ah-ah, don't let me die tonight
[Bridge]
Lonely stars, will never know
Never know we're all right
'Less we turn 'round our telescopes
Beamin' me back some light
Don't forget me when I'm gone
'Cause all my diamonds will be shining on
[Outro]
Don't let me die tonight
Don't let me die tonight
Don't let me die tonight
Don't let me die tonight
Don't let me die tonight
Don't let me die tonight
Don't let me die tonight
Don't let me die tonight
Don't let me die tonight
