Won't Let You Fall (Ost. Poseidon) by Fergie


Won't Let You Fall (Ost. Poseidon) by Fergie



I’ll never let you go
So never let me go
I will be your journey and you will be my road
Down the stormy path
Love will never come to pass
You will be our anchor
Although the winds may blow

And through the depths of high and low
Wherever you will go, I’ll follow to the end
Back again you know
Won’t let you fall, fall out of love
Coz together we’ll be holding on
Coz all we have is us
Won’t let you go, go away again
Because life don’t mean nothing at all
If I don’t have your love

I will dry your tears
Take away your fears
Let me be your shelter
Your heart is safe in here
So beautiful and pure
Nothin I would not endure
Oohh… love has got me blinded
I can see it all so clear

And through the depths of high and low
Wherever you will go, I’ll follow to the end
Back again you know

Won’t let you fall, fall out of love
Coz together we’ll be holding on
Coz all we have is us
Won’t let you go, go away again
Because life don’t mean nothing at all
If I don’t have your love

I’m down for you for whatever anything you’re going through
What’s mine is yours every little thing I got you here and when
Where’s a change comes smashing down and crashing on you

Won’t let you fall, fall out of love
Coz together we’ll be holding on
Coz all we have is us
Won’t let you go, go away again
Because life don’t mean nothing at all
If I don’t have your love

Don’t have your love
If I don’t have your love
No… oohh
Ever let you go, never let you go
Let you fall, let you fall
Fall out of love
