Lyrics Saint Etienne – Don’t Back Down
Text:
Just as I walked away
I turned to hear you say
«The words nearly got carried away by the wind
Of that, I can make out this much»
Don’t back down
Don’t back down, this time
Brown eyes and cider-bright
Don’t back down
Don’t back down, this time
Sometimes I wonder why
Love-town and fortis-green
Your mother hated me
«Caught in a car outside the O.D.
And rain pouring down the windscreen»
Don’t back down
Don’t back down this time
Brown eyes and cider-bright
Don’t back down
Don’t back down, this time
Sometimes I wonder why
That summer felt so long
I never felt so strong
«And then, a suddent craving
That I might want to see you again»
Don’t back down
Don’t back down this time
Brown eyes and cider-bright
Don’t back down
Don’t back down, this time
Sometimes I wonder why
…
