Lyrics

[00:17.84] You could no more kill the darkness
[00:20.74]
[00:21.54] Than you could raise the sun
[00:24.67] And the sky was cold and black
[00:27.85] Like the barrel of a gun
[00:30.72] And I remember the tremble
[00:34.03] In the words you spoke
[00:36.95] As you balanced there on the brink
[00:40.12] At the end of your rope
[00:43.13] And you came so close
[00:46.27] You cam so close
[00:49.34] You came so close to letting go
[00:57.18]
[00:58.85] To letting go
[01:02.16]
[01:07.97] And you knew she would hate you
[01:10.14]
[01:10.76] She would kick you out
[01:13.33]
[01:13.96] 'Cause you were lying in the bed that you made
[01:17.08] When you broke your vow
[01:19.01]
[01:19.88] But then you woke in the wasteland
[01:23.14] Of the truth you told
[01:26.21] And you turned to see she stayed,
[01:29.17] She was bright as a band of gold
[01:32.43] And you came so close
[01:35.61] You cam so close
[01:38.60] You came so close to letting go
[01:45.72]
[01:48.03] To letting go
[01:52.38]
[01:56.88] So don't let go
[01:59.90]
[02:00.41] 'Cause you never know
[02:03.16] Don't let go
[02:06.29] 'Cause you never know for sure
[02:09.37] Don't let go
[02:12.75] Or you'll never know
[02:15.00]
[02:15.93] You'll never know
[02:17.74]
[02:21.85] And the sky in Nashville
[02:24.80] It can bend you low
[02:26.85]
[02:27.79] 'Cause the winter here is gray
[02:31.04] Without a trace of snow
[02:33.97] But there is no shadow
[02:36.85] On the silver stars
[02:39.87] And the colder the night is,
[02:43.19] The closer the heavens are
[02:46.37] And we're so close
[02:48.99]
[02:49.67] We're so close
[02:52.81] We're so close
[02:55.88] We're so close
[02:58.82] So don't let go
[03:02.07] 'Cause this I know
[03:05.13] Don't let go
[03:08.19] This I know for sure
[03:10.99] Don't let go
[03:14.06] 'Cause this I know
[03:17.24] This I know for sure
[03:20.55] There's still hope
[03:22.29]
[03:24.43]
