I’ll Never Leave You Lyrics

Some nights I go to sleep without you
The river's far too deep without you
I can't make it alone, I need you by my side

Some nights I spend alone without you
The river's far too wide without you
I can't make it alone, I need you by my side

I'll never leave you alone
I'll never leave just a memory
I'll never leave you alone in the garden
Where nothing grows
I love you so much baby

I'll never leave you alone
I'll never leave just a memory
I'll never leave you alone in the garden
Where nothing grows
I love you so much baby

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
