Never Let Go

would you lay it all down
to save me, my friend?
can you give what I need
and be happy you did?
I can say good-bye
but never let go
you're buried too deeply
inside of my soul

can you be the kind of friend
who always looks back?
picks me up when I've fallen,
puts me on the right track?
will you never look down
and please never let me go?
bury me there, deeply,
inside of your soul

we live, we learn
we play another hand
we can't see the future
with just one glance
we keep rolling the dice
and taking one more chance
we never look down
and we never let go
and it all comes from something
deep inside our souls
