Lyrics

I would sit and write all night
so young without any hindsight
seal the flap, cause what it holds
was more sacred
than the dead sea scrolls
the love letters
we waited for
with the smell of your perfume
on every page
it was so much fun
to dream of life where we were one

and I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you go
and I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you go

yesterday is lost
like a changing city skyline
now we're struggling to find
the right words to hit rewind
the love letters
hidden away
stuffed into a heart-shaped box
for the curious kids to one day see
how we used to be

you are me
and i am you
and I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you
forget the words
and I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you
get too far away
from when we were
brand new and shiny
you are me
and i am you
and I'm never gonna let you go

a hundred-forty characters
it doesn't do the trick
tellin' all your friends
what you're doin' right now
it really makes me sick
I need to know you're secrets

you are me
and i am you
and I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you
forget the words
and I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you
get too far away
from when we were
brand new and shiny
you are me
and i am you
and I'm never gonna let you go

and I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you go
and I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you go
and I'm never gonna let you
never gonna let you go
