[Verse 1]
Exchanging beauty
For the ashes
Given my heart to
Nothing real
Exchanging beauty
For the ashes
Given my heart to
Nothing real

[Verse 2]
I've given my heart away
To so many things
So many times
I've failed
Help me stop
This endless
Cycle
Remind me
Of how it
Can be

[Instrumental]

[Bridge]
Take me back
I surrender all
Without you
My heart is broken
[Breakdown]

[Chorus]
I never should have let you go
I never should have let you
Slip through my arms
I never should have let you go
I never should have let you
Slip through my arms
(As the sun sets tonight)
I never should have let you go
(I'll hold you with all that I am)
I never should have let you
Slip through my arms
(As the sun sets tonight)
I never should have let you go
(I'll hold you with all that I am)
I never should have let you
Slip through my arms
(As the sun sets tonight)
I never should have let you go
(I'll hold you with all that I am)
I never should have let you
Slip through my arms
I never should've let you go
Promise me
You'll stay with me forever
(Forever)
I never should've let you go
Promise me
You'll stay with me forever
(Forever)
I never should've let you go
Promise me
You'll stay with me forever
(Forever)

[Outro]
Forgive me
For running
So quickly
To the outside
Forgive me
For running
So quickly to the outside
