"I Won't Let You Go" lyrics - SWITCHFOOT

When it feels like surgery
And it burns like third degree
And you wonder what is it worth

When you're inside's breaking in
And you feel that ache again
And you wonder what's giving birth

If you could let the pain of the past go of your soul
None of this is in your control

If you could only let your guard down
If you could learn to trust me somehow
I swear that I won't let you go
If you could only let go your doubts
If you could just believe in me now
I swear that I won't let you go
I won't let you go

When your fear is currency
And you feel that urgency
You want peace but there's war in your head

Maybe that's where life is born
When our facades are torn
Pain gives birth to the promise ahead

Yeah
If you could let the pain of the past go of your soul
None of this is in your control

If you could only let your guard down
If you could learn to trust me somehow
Well I swear that I won't let you go
If you could only let go your doubts
If you could just believe in me now
I swear that I won't let you go
I won't let you go

I'll always be by your side

If you could only let your guard down
If you could learn to trust me somehow
I swear that I won't let you go
If you could only let go your doubts
If you could just believe in me now
I swear that I won't let you go
I won't let you go
(I won't let you go)
I won't let you go
(I won't let you go)

There ain't no darkness strong enough that could tear you out from my heart
Oh there ain't no strength that's strong enough that could tear this love apart
There ain't no darkness strong enough that could tear you out from my heart
Oh there ain't no strength that's strong enough that could tear this love apart
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go
No I won't let you go
