James Arthur – Say You Won't Let Go lyrics

James Arthur – Say You Won't Let Go lyrics

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

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

I knew I loved you then
But you'd never know
Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go
I know 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

I 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

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

I'm so in love with you
And I hope you know
Darling your love is more than worth 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

I wanna live with you
Even when we're ghosts
Cause you were always there for me
When I needed you most

I'm gonna love you till
My lungs give out
I promise till death we part
Like in our vows
So I wrote this song for you
Now everybody knows
That it's just you and me
Until we're grey and old
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go

Just say you won't let go
Oh, just say you won't let go

when i met j he picked me up, late, he took a shower, while he was in the shower, i drank a whole lot of southern comfort, i drank to much, he asked me if i was ok, i asked, do you have a cup? no why, i need a bowl, im going to throw up, he had to hold my hair back, while i was throwing up, as soon as it was over, i looked up, and tried to pull him onto the bed, on top of me, just after throwing up, he said no im good, maybe you should just stay over, i take you home in the mornng when we are both sober, we stayed up all night talked and laughed till the sun came up, he said i better get ready, ive got to go to work, i told you you should of gotten some rest, well if i fall asleep on the way to work, and die, itll be your fault, no no n dont say that, id die if something happened to you, Can you take my truck and take my kids to school, sure, theyll show you where to go, so i dropped them off and waved goodbye, said thank you god, for meeting this guy, i think i already love him, id marry this guy, be a stay home mom raise his kids, and spend the rest of my life doing this, on the way home from work that afternoon he hit a butane truck going 80 mph never hit the brakes, should of been killed, he lived, i almost fell in love with a ghost, i guess we werer meant to spend our lifes together til we are gray and old, or youd be a ghost. the end,

This verse opens with a double meaning. On the one hand, the couple literally met in a dimly lit place (from the references to drinking and dancing, likely a party or a club), but this person’s personality was shining.

On the other hand, the speaker met their partner when he was “in a dark place,” metaphorically, and their partner helped to counter that darkness. “You made me feel as though I was enough” can mean they helped him feel secure in their relationship (that he was “enough” for them), but it also probably relates to the speaker’s internal self-confidence which was strengthened by their partner (that he was “enough” as he was).

My last month check was for $11000 dollars... Everything I did was basic online work from comfort at home for 3-4 hours/day that I got from this office I found over the web and they paid me for it 95 bucks each hour... Attempt it yourself....
smile AND GOOD LUCK. Smile
