Never Let You Go
Frankie & The Darvels Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thoughts of you get's me high, it takes my mind through space and time
This can't be real cause everything feels like a dream
Every moment without your presence is just the same because I'm in your essence
Don't take it strange, just try to understand what I mean

And if you swear not to tell, I just might let you live
I'll try the best that I can but I'm very unpredictable
I was thinking to myself because I can't think to anybody else
Of all the people In the world, why'd It have to be me?
I never ever felt for anybody this way and then It hit me
In the middle of an April day, that's what makes me feel It was meant to be

What did I say? Why you tryna make It this way?
And to think, I was just about to letcha' go

Oh my baby it's so good to be together, this the life for us
We'll always be in love forever, I'll never let you go, I'll never let you go




I'll never go, I'll never let you go, I'll never let you go, I'll never go
Never let you go, never let you go, never let you go, never let you go
