Down the Line Lyrics - John Newman

1 I've been battered, I've been bruised

2 And though I know it's no excuse

3 For you I know I'm right

4 But in another place, in another time

5 I'd buy you flowers, I'd build a home

6 Right now, can't pay the bills, I cannot go

7 Can't give you anything you need

8 But maybe if you meet me further down the line

9 'Cause you're the right person at the wrong time

10 I wanna run into the light

11 Leave the dark behind

12 I wanna break the chains of life

13 With you right by my side

14 So you gotta meet me down the line

15 So you gotta meet me down the line

16 I'm easily dazed, I'm so confused

17 It's hurting me and I'm hurting you

18 Despite everything you do

19 You're gonna have to meet me further down the line

20 'Cause you're the right person at the wrong time

21 I wanna run into the light

22 Leave the dark behind

23 I wanna break the chains of life

24 With you right by my side

25 So

26 You gotta meet me down the line

27 So

28 You gotta meet me down the line

29 You've been trying hard to make me feel a little better

30 It's gonna take a while to make me feel a little better

31 And I'll try, try, try, try, a little harder - ooh, yeah

32 And I swear, swear, swear, I'll get a little further

33 I wanna run into the light

34 Leave the dark behind

35 I wanna break the chains of life

36 With you right by my side

37 So

38 You gotta meet me down the line

39 So

40 You gotta meet me down the line

41 So you gotta meet me down the line

42 I'm easily dazed, I'm so confused

43 It's hurting me and I'm hurting you
