Never Let Her Go

(Album: Anything Like Me - 2010)

I can see us there on a summer night
With a blanket down, looking up at the starry sky
So in love that goodnight kiss never felt so sweet
Didn't know that'd be the last there'd be
But like the leaves, on an autumn tree
When the summer's gone, so was she

She had my heart
At seventeen
Now all I've got
Is her memory
Where she is now
I just don't know
How she got gone when I never let her go

I just know she's out there somewhere
Living life with no regrets
I wish I could say the same for me
But I ain't got there

She had my heart
At seventeen
Man I fell so hard
I lost everything
Where she is now
I just don't know
How she got gone

She had my heart
At seventeen
Now all I've got
Is her memory
Where she is now
I just don't know
How she got gone when I never let her go
Never let her go

It was late July in that photograph
I could see her smile, hear her laugh
