"I Won't Let You Go"
By James Morrison

When it's black
Take a little time to hold yourself
Take a little time to feel around
Before it's gone

You won't let go
But you still keep on falling down
Remember how you saved me now
From all of my wrongs

Chorus

If there's love, just feel it
If there's life, we'll see it
This is no time to be alone
I won't let you go

Say those words, say those words
Like there's nothing else
Close your eyes and you might believe
That there is some way out

Open up
Open up your heart to me now
Let it all come pouring out
There's nothing I can't take

(Chorus)

If your sky is falling
Just take my hand and hold it
You don't have to be alone
I won't let you go

And if you feel the fading of the light
And you're too weak to carry on the fire
And all your friends that you count on
Have disappeared
I'll be here, not gone, forever
Holding on

(Chorus)
