I took the good, I took the bad
And everything that's in between
I saw a silver lining
In even my darkest dreams
But I did it all alone;
'Never knew that I was incomplete
Yeah, you never knew you'd be
The better half of me

You pick me up, lay me down

[Chorus]
I will never, no, I'll never
Leave you, baby
It's not where I end or you begin
No, no, baby, it's where we blend
Whoa oh oh oh oh

Trace my mouth and learn it well
For the day I'm gone again
Keep my name on your tongue
Like yours is on my skin
'Gonna lay my burdens down
And trade them in for steady hands
Studying war no more by the river bend
All I need, I shall not want
All I need, I shall not want

[Chorus]
I will never, no, I'll never
Leave you, baby
It's not where I end or you begin
No, no, baby, it's where we blend
Whoa oh oh oh oh

Let another year go by
Watching as the seasons go
We'll stay young and pure
While the world grows old
And I will kiss you when you wake
At night I'll kiss your heavy eyes
I will keep you safe
From the world outside

I'll pick you up and lay you down
I'll pick you up and lay you down

[Chorus]
I will never, no, I'll never
Leave you, baby
It's not where I end or you begin
No, no, baby, it's where we blend
Whoa oh oh oh oh
