I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go unless you ask me to
Please don't ask me to
Fail and slip back
To the link I left in my past
[?] more than once
But these hands ain't shook for months
They ain't shook for months
My words never come out right
When I need them, they slip my mind
So I buried them in a song
So you'll always know
That I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go unless you ask me to
Please don't ask me to
Key and lock around our throats
So we'll always be at home
And when we're lying in the ground
Our love will be written about in history books
And heard in young lovers' mouths
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go unless you ask me to
Please don't ask me to
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go
I'll never let you go unless you ask me to
