And if forever never comes tonight
And if forever never comes tonight
And if forever never comes tonight
I'll hold on, hold on

I keep listening to my chest for a beat, but there's nothing left
It's been a week since I've seen you, and I still can't believe it
'Cause I'm dying inside alone

And in every dream we gotta be apart
I'm like a baby with a broken heart
But the second that I see you
You will know how much I need you
Because I'll never be letting you go

(Now you know why)
I'm lost without you
And there's nothing I can do
Your the one that I can't go without
And by holding onto you, then I'll be holding on forever

I've got you now and I'm not letting go of you
Never been together long enough
Because every moment I'm with you, it's like I'm holding onto heaven

And if forever never comes tonight
And if forever never comes tonight
And if forever never comes tonight
I'll hold on, hold on

In a symphony, baby you would be my melody
And you would flow like a river, slowing going on forever
Like a feather that's blowing away
Like everyone that needs a fairytale, like every mother's love that never fails
Like every game that needs a player, and a sinner needs a savior
I'm the villain that your willing to save

(Now you know why)
I'm lost without you
And there's nothing I can do
Your the one that I can't go without
And by holding onto you, then I'll be holding on forever

I've for you now and I'm not letting go of you
Never been together long enough
Because every moment I'm with you, it's like I'm holding onto heaven

I'm willing to wait, just to see you another day
What I'm waiting for will wash this pain away
And it's never too late

And if forever never comes tonight
And if forever never comes tonight
And if forever never comes tonight
I'll hold on, hold on

(Now you know why)
I'm lost without you
And there's nothing I can do
Your the one that I can't go without
And by holding onto you, then I'll be holding on forever

I've got you now and I'm not letting go of you
Never been together long enough
'Cause every moment I'm with you, it's like I'm holding onto heaven
'Cause every moment I'm with you, it's like I'm holding onto heaven

    General Comment:What an amazing & beautiful song! Can't believe noone has commented yet. To me, this is the most profound song on the new album.

    My take on it - it's either about getting back together with that special girl after a recent/short breakup, or it could possibly be about a new and budding relationship - with someone incredible!
