Before I Let You Go Lyrics

On a typical Tuesday

Your average slow news day

Somebody's saying goodbye

Doing the usual things

Then the telephone rings

And the whole world just stops on a dime

I know this time it wasn't us

And maybe I just think too much

But I don't wanna push my luck

Cause baby

There's no guarantees

We're gonna see tomorrow

Count every heartbeat

You don't know which ones borrowed

This could be the last time, no way for us to know

So let me hold you harder, love you longer

Before I let you go

I know life isn't perfect

There's fights and it's work but

I promise I won't close my eyes

Without saying I love you

You say I don't have to

But I've lost enough to realize

There's no guarantees

We're gonna see tomorrow

Count every heartbeat

You don't know which ones borrowed

This could be the last time, no way for us to know

So let me hold you harder, love you longer

Before I let you go

The sorry that we should have said

The slammin' doors, the empty bed

The stupid things we let get in the way

Let's put em all behind us now

Let them serve to remind us how

We're not promised more than just today

There's no guarantees

We're gonna see tomorrow

Count every heartbeat

You don't know which ones borrowed

This could be the last time, no way for us to know

So let me hold you harder, love you longer

Before I let you go
