I was as wrong as I could be
To let you get away from me
I’ll regret that move
For as long as I’m livin’

But now that I’ve come to see the light
All I wanna do is make things right
So just say the word
And tell me that I’m forgiven

You and me, we’re gonna be
Better than we were before
I loved you then but now I intend
To open up and love you even more
This time you can be sure

I’m never gonna let you go
I’m gonna hold you in my arms forever
Gonna try and make up for the times I hurt you so
Gonna hold your body close to mine
From this day on we’re gonna be together
Oh, I swear this time I’m never gonna let you go

Looking back now it seems so clear
I had it all when you were here
Oh, you gave it all and I took it for granted
But if there’s some feelin’ left in you
Some flickers of love that still shines through
Let’s talk it out, let’s talk about second chances

Wait and see it’s gonna be sweeter than it was before
I gave some then, but now I intend
To dedicate myself to givin’ more
This time you can be sure

I’m never gonna let you go
I’m gonna hold you in my arms forever
Gonna try and make up for the times I hurt you so
Gonna hold your body close to mine
From this day on we’re gonna be together
Oh, I swear this time I’m never gonna let you go

Oh...
So if you’ll just say you want me too

I’m never gonna let you go
I’m gonna hold you in my arms forever
Gonna try and make up for the times I hurt you so
Gonna hold your body close to mine
From this day on we’re gonna be together
Oh, I swear this time I’m never gonna let you go

Never gonna let you go
Hold you in my arms forever
Gonna try and make up for the times I hurt you so
Hold your body close to mine
Oh, we’re gonna be together
Oh, I swear this time I’m never gonna let you go
