Lyrics
Wise men thinkin' by numbers
Shaken, not stirred
But I hang, I hang on your every word
These days I roll with the punches
Always your clown
Do you remember when we used to paint this town
Red, gold, green, and blue?
If you still believe in me and you
Don't walk away
I know we'll find an answer if you stay
Don't walk away
There's nothin' in tomorrow that wasn't there in yesterday
Oh no no no
All the heartache
Too many nights in a heartbreak hotel
Don't you give up
Love is a carousel
Put on your dancin' shoes
And we can paint this town
Red, gold, green, and blue
If you still believe in me and you
Don't walk away
I know we'll find the answer if you stay
Don't walk away
There's nothin' in tomorrow that wasn't there in yesterday
I'm sad, that's all, this can't be the end
It's not my fault, the rain on the roof
Reach out, reach out, I'm drownin' not wavin'
Reach out and touch before it's too late to save our love
Baby, don't you walk away, oh no
Don't walk away
I know I'll find an answer if you stay
Don't walk away
There's nothin' in tomorrow that wasn't there in yesterday
Don't walk away
Don't walk away
No, just stay
Baby, don't walk away
(Every curtain has a silver linin')
Don't walk away
Baby, don't walk away
(If you look hard enough you'll find love is shinin')
Don't walk away
No no no no no
(Every endin' has a silver linin' . . .)
