Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down, my love
Like a cat in a bag waiting to drown
This time I'm coming down
And I hope you're thinking of me
As you lay down on your side
[Chorus]
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
[Verse 2]
But I know I'm on a losing streak
As I pass down my old street
And if you want a show
Then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again
[Chorus]
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
[Bridge]
'Cause, baby, ooh
If heaven calls, I'm coming too
Just like you said
You leave my life
I'm better off dead
[Verse 3]
All this talk of getting old
It's getting me down, my love
Like a cat in a bag waiting to drown
This time I'm coming down
[Chorus]
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
[Bridge]
'Cause, baby, ooh
If heaven calls, I'm coming too
Just like you said
You leave my life
I'm better off dead
[Verse 4]
But if you want a show
Then just let me know
And I'll sing in your ear again
[Chorus]
Now the drugs don't work
They just make you worse
But I know I'll see your face again
[Verse 5]
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again, whoa, Lord
Yeah, I know I'll see your face again, whoa, Lord
[Verse 6]
Never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more
Never coming down now, never coming down
No more, no more, no more, no more, no more, no more
