(Won't back down, really can't turn around,
there's no stopping now, no stopping now, I won't quit...)

It's funny how we communicate
With words on paper in rhythm
Time is lending a hand to fate
So slow down, slow down and please
Don't ask me why I'm here
Just believe it

And no I won't back down, I really can't turn around
There's no stopping now, no stopping now
I won't quit on you

(Won't back down, really can't turn around,
there's no stopping now, no stopping now)

And I can't be sure of myself when I'm taking all the chances
Are you counting imperfections,
Are you holding out for someone else to hold on to?
Are you?
Are you?

Up the stairs with the lights down low
Are you on somebody else's mind tonight?
You feel so right to me
I can't be held accountable
My heart is unpredictable

And no I won't back down, I really can't turn around
There's no stopping now, no stopping now
I won't quit
And I'm not quite sure, I haven't been here before
Please don't let me down
Please just show me how to live without you

Won't back down, really can't turn around
(I can't be, I can't be) there's no stopping now, no stopping now
Won't back down, really can't turn around
(I can't be, I can't be) there's no stopping now, no stopping now
Won't back down, really can't turn around
(I can't be, I can't be) there's no stopping now, no stopping now
Won't back down, really can't turn around
(I can't be, I can't be) there's no stopping now, no...

And no I won't back down, I really can't turn around
There's no stopping now, no stopping now
I won't quit
And I'm not quite sure, I haven't been here before
Please don't let me down
Please just show me how to live without you
