I've seen it risin', yeah, she got me shinin'
Oh, she really did like no one ever did
I've seen it fallin', yeah, she made the call
And so much in between, you never can redeem

Just fly a little bit, oh, fly a little
Forever leavin' ground, amazement all around
Releasin', releasin'
When you're leavin'

Just don't let me down, I'm beggin' you
Just don't let me down, I'm beggin' you
I'm dreamin' of a dream that is never gonna end
Oh, you gotta see it, it'll treat you right
Just don't let me down, heavenly

I've seen your wings when they're workin', when they're open
When they take you out, what they bring back home, and
I've seen this place when it's full of all the light
That comes in between the moments even if they're broken

And now it's crawlin' with thoughts
Fallin' to pieces of things that we believed
Who are we to dream?
The wind is blowin', it's made itself at home
But it's leavin' and you're leavin'

Just don't let me down, I'm beggin' you (Beggin' you)
Just don't let me down, I'm beggin' you (Beggin' you)
I'm dreamin' of a dream that is never gonna end
Oh, you gotta see it, it'll treat you right (Treat you right)
Just don't let me down, heavenly

There comes the day when I'm leavin'
Oh, I'm beggin' you, don't let me down
(Don't let me down)
Treat me right, treat me right (Don't let me down)
Heavenly

Just don't let me down, I'm beggin' you (Beggin' you)
Just don't let me down, I'm beggin' you (Beggin' you)
I'm dreamin' of a dream that is never gonna end
Oh, you gotta see it, it'll treat you right (Treat you right)
Just don't let me down, heavenly

Why so harsh? It's a nice tune!


Some of us like nice, but think it's not enough on it's own.  And here I'd say that it's on it's own.
Jack Johnson + Milky Chance?!? That is awesome, and it rocks.

It may be just another pop song, but I wish more pop songs were this good.

agreed - but I think he is better live. just saw him in an outdoor venue in NH and had so much fun. his opening act joined him onstage and did an amazing job with a Stevie Wonder tune - another local fave (Zach Brown) joined for a Tom Petty tune. Wonderful as all his own music. Keep music live!

Agreed. Easy "7" here.

Misread as Joe Jackson which caused a mindfart or two until I'd resolved the problem!
