chrissie hynde - don’t fall apart on me tonight lyrics

[verse 1]
just a minute before you leave
just a minute before you touch the door
what is it that you’re trying to achieve?
do you think we can just talk about it some more?

the streets are filled with vipers
who’ve lost all ray of hope
it ain’t even safe no more
in the palace of the pope

[chorus]
don’t fall apart on me tonight
i just don’t think that i could handle it
don’t fall apart on me tonight
yesterday’s just a memory
tomorrow is never what it’s supposed to be
and i need you, oh yeah

[verse 2]
come over here from over there
sit down here, you can have my chair
i can’t see us goin’ anywhere
the only place open is a thousand miles away
and i can’t take you there
i wished i’d been a doctor
maybe i’d saved some life that’ve been lost
maybe i’d done some good in the world
instead of burning every bridge i crossed

[chorus]
don’t fall apart on me tonight
i just don’t think that i could handle it
don’t fall apart on me tonight
yesterday’s just a memory
tomorrow’s never what it’s supposed to be
and i need you, oh yeah

[verse 3]
i ain’t too good at conversation
so you might not know exactly how i feel
but if i could i’d bring you to the mountain top
and build you a house of stainless steel

it’s like i’m stuck inside a painting
that’s hanging in the louvre
my throat starts to tickle and my nose itches
but i know that i can’t move

[chorus]
don’t fall apart on me tonight
i just don’t think that i can handle it
don’t fall apart on me tonight
yesterday’s gone but the past lives on
tomorrow’s just one step beyond
and i need you, oh yeah
[bridge]
who are these people walking towards you?
do you know them or will there be a fight?
with their humorless smiles so easy to see through
can they tell you what’s wrong from right?
do you remember [?] street
where you blew jackie p’s mind?
you were so fine, clark gable would have fell at your feet
and laid his life on the line

[verse 4]
let’s try to get beneath this surface waste
no more b00by traps and bombs
no more decadence and charms
no more affection that’s misplaced
no more mud cake creatures lying in your arms

what about that billionaire
with the drumsticks in his pants?
he looked so baffled, so bewildered
when he played and we didn’t dance

[chorus]
don’t fall apart on me tonight
i just don’t think that i could handle it
don’t fall apart on me tonight
yesterday is just a memory
tomorrow’s never what it’s supposed to be
and i need you, oh yeah
don’t fall apart on me tonight
don’t fall apart on me tonight
don’t fall apart on me tonight
don’t fall apart on me tonight
don’t fall apart on me tonight
