lyrics

Don't Let Me Go

A different city, a different world
You a different boy and I was still a girl
So much we didn't know of how our lives would go
But still we knew the truth of who we were
You said you loved me, in your way
Pulling closer, pushing away
Right then if I could I'd have stayed there always
And you said:

Hold on – I know
I'll try to let you go but
Please don't let me go
And I promised you

Changing time and changing circumstance
So many bright lights fade into the distance
That's how it goes and everybody knows it
We don't like it but it's not like we chose it
The little slights help in letting go
Build the walls up, and let the silence grow
It's ok it's all part of the process
Except I can't forget that you said

Hold on - I know
I'll try to let you go but
Blease don't let me go
You said – hold on to me
I know
I'll try to let you go but
Please don't let me go
and I promised you

I promised you
I promised you

I reach out you don't return my call
Don't know what you remember, wanna forget it all
Instead I'm crying lying on the floor
I'm so tired I'm so sick and bored of it.
A different city, a different world
A woman trapped in the words of the girl I was
Still clutching, clinging too tight
To the promise of a long-ago night, saying

Hold on – I know
I'll try to let you go but
Please don't let me go
And I said:
I'll hold on to you – I know
you'll try to let me go but
Please don't let me go
Don't let me go
Don't let me go
'Cause I promise you

I promise you
I promise you
I promise you
