LYRICS I met you in the dark, you lit me up You made me feel as though I was enough We danced the night away, we drank too much I held your hair back when You were throwing up Then you smiled over your shoulder For a minute, I was stone-cold sober I pulled you closer to my chest And you asked me to stay over I said, I already told ya I think that you should get some rest I knew I loved you then But you'd never know 'Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go I know I needed you But I never showed But I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go I'll wake you up with some breakfast in bed I'll bring you coffee with a kiss on your head And I'll take the kids to school Wave them goodbye And I'll thank my lucky stars for that night When you looked over your shoulder For a minute, I forget that I'm older I wanna dance with you right now Oh, and you look as beautiful as ever And I swear that everyday you'll get better You make me feel this way somehow I'm so in love with you And I hope you know Darling, your love is more than worth its weight in gold We've come so far, my dear Look how we've grown And I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go I wanna live with you Even when we're ghosts 'Cause you were always there for me when I needed you most I'm gonna love you 'til My lungs give out I promise 'til death we part like in our vows So I wrote this song for you, now everybody knows That it's just you and me 'til we're grey and old Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go Oh, just say you won't let go
I loved this song since it came out but took another level and meaning when I just recently had heart failure and battled my way through. I will be 40 this Nov 10 and I hope and pray I can achieve that. I love my wife and kids, I had been broken in the past and she made me whole. I won't let go and sure hope I can be with her until we are grey and old. Thank you James for this lovely song, I hold it dear to my heart.
The greatest man in history is Jesus. He had no servant, yet they called him master. He had no degree, yet they called him teacher. He had no medicines,yet they called him healer. He had no army, yet kings feared him. He won no military battle, yet he conquered the world. He committed no crime, yet they crucified him. He was buried in a tomb,yet he lives Today.

I always listen to him whenever it's beer day. us sitting right at my backyard, swaying my body and my head when I hear James. it keeps my weekend calm and relaxing than going to the club
Usually when an artist plays one of their hits that's older than 5 yrs they lose some of its conviction and their vocal is not quite as pure. With James here he's lost none of that, his falsetto is still lovely, his variations on the vocal lines are still interesting and exceptionally controlled, and he's lost none of his range. Really really nice version, he's an outstanding vocalist.
I met you in the dark, you lit me up You made me feel as though I was enough We danced the night away, we drank too much I held your hair back when You were throwing up Then you smiled over your shoulder For a minute, I was stone-cold sober I pulled you closer to my chest And you asked me to stay over I said, "I already told ya I think that you should get some rest" I knew I loved you then But you'd never know 'Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go I know I needed you But I never showed But I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go I'll wake you up with some breakfast in bed I'll bring you coffee with a kiss on your head And I'll take the kids to school Wave them goodbye And I'll thank my lucky stars for that night When you looked over your shoulder For a minute, I forget that I'm older I wanna dance with you right now Oh, and you look as beautiful as ever And I swear that everyday you'll get better You make me feel this way somehow I'm so in love with you And I hope you know Darling, your love is more than worth its weight in gold We've come so far, my dear Look how we've grown And I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go I wanna live with you Even when we're ghosts 'Cause you were always there for me when I needed you most I'm gonna love you 'til My lungs give out I promise 'til death we part like in our vows So I wrote this song for you, now everybody knows That it's just you and me 'til we're grey and old Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go Just say you won't let go Oh, just say you won't let go
I trusted you Believe in the goodness of an illusion What did I do For you to break my heart I didn't give enough flowers Or I didn't say I love you I must have broken your nail And she stuck deep
