Lyrics of Say You Won't Let Go by James Arthur

verse

I met you in the dark

You lit me up

You made me feel as though

I was enough

We danced the night away

We drank too much

I held your hair back when

You were throwing up

pre-chorus

Then you smiled over your shoulder

For a minute, I was stone cold sober

I pulled you closer to my chest

And you asked me to stay over

I said, "I already told ya

I think that you should get some rest"

chorus

I knew I loved you then, but you'd never know

'Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go

I knew I needed you, but I never showed

But I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old

Just say you won't let go

Just say you won't let go

verse

I'll wake you up with some breakfast in bed

I'll bring you coffee with a kiss on your head

And I'll take the kids to school

Wave them goodbye

And I'll thank my lucky stars for that night

pre-chorus

When you looked over your shoulder

For a minute, I forget that I'm older

I wanna dance with you right now, oh

And you look as beautiful as ever

And I swear that everyday you'll get better

You make me feel this way somehow

chorus

I'm so in love with you

And I hope you know

Darling, your love is more than what its weight in gold

We've come so far my dear

Look how we've grown

And I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old

Just say you won't let go

Just say you won't let go

bridge

I wanna live with you

Even when we're ghosts

'Cause you were always there for me

When I needed you most

chorus

I'm gonna love you 'til my lungs give out

I promise 'til death we part like in our vows

So I wrote this song for you

Now everybody knows

That it's just you and me 'til we're grey and old

Just say you won't let go

Just say you won't let go

outro

Just say you won't let go

Oh, just say you won't let go

Writer(s): James Arthur, Neil Ormandy, Steve Solomon
