You Can't Keep A Good Man Down
Written by Stuart Denney & Gareth Edler © Shy June 2009


If I have to spend
Another night alone
I might tear out my eyes -
Rather than see you
Dancing through my mind, again
...It's more than I can stand

If I have to be
In that place we know
I might cut off both my ears -
Sooner than hear you
Smiling through your fears, again
...It's more than I can stand

You'd think I'd be wiser, by now!

(Chorus)
It's scenes like these
That make me feel alone
It's scenes like these
That make me feel so...(?)
Ashamed, to be alive
What's a life, if you live it alone?

If I have to see
Another day with you
I should rip out my tongue
Before I can scare you
Into bringing true my fears, again
...It's more than I can stand

You'd think I'd be wiser, by now!

(Chorus)

I've still got my eyes
I've still got my ears
I've still got my fears
But I've still got my tongue

(If I have to spend
Another night alone
I might give you a call
{While} I've still got my tongue)
