Lyrics

I won't let you down, intentionally
I'll do everything that I can
To break free of the devils in me
But hard as I try
There's just no guarantee
That I can rest easy
While the red wine and whisky
Just won't let me be

When I'm at your side eventually
I thought I'd be free of the dark side of life
That keeps following me
Cos you'll help me through
By believing in me
The devils wont haunt me
While a lady of mercy
Still looks over me

But I wont let you down
If I can break free
From the red wine and whisky
That won't let me be

It's dragging me down emotionally
I thought I'd be free of the dark side of life
That keeps following me
Cos love pulls you through
But there's no guarantee
The drinks always waiting
For one chance of breaking
The will that's in me

I won't let you down
If I can break free
From the red wine and whisky
That won't let me be
