From the recordings TAKE MY HEART and NEVER GONNA LET YOU GO

For Jill

Lyrics

NEVER GONNA LET YOU GO

You are my love
Just take that for a fact,
I give you my heart
Ain’t never gonna take it back
I know what you’ve been thinkin’:
It’s hard to let love sink in,
Maybe that’s true, but all that I know…
I’m never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go
This love, this life
Let’s take it for a ride,
It cuts like a knife--
These feelings deep inside,
There ain’t no point concealing
Love’s come for its’ revealing,
Sure you can run if you want,
But I think you know…
I’m never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go
Let’s make this for all time
No more standing in the breach,
Sneakin’ ‘round the corner,
Watching our lives drift by
No more love that’s out of reach,
Love that’s on the border
Oh, oh, can you feel it too?
It’s the sweet hand of fate,
Right there beckoning you!
This is our chance
Just take that for a fact,
Better take it while we can,
Ain’t never gonna get it back
This ain’t, what it’s been seeming
Look to the deeper meaning…
When I do that, I see you
That’s when I know…
I’m never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna let you go
