American Love

Exchanging beauty for the ashes
Given my heart to nothing real
Exchanging beauty for the ashes
Given my heart to nothing real

I've given my heart away to so many things
So many times I've failed
Help me stop this endless cycle
Remind me of how it can be

Take me back, I surrender all
Without you my heart is broken

I never should have let you go
I never should have let you slip through my arms
I never should have let you go
I never should have let you slip through my arms

As the sun sets tonight
(I never should have let you go)
I'll hold you with all that I am
(I never should have let you slip through my arms)

As the sun sets tonight
(I never should have let you go)
I'll hold you with all that I am
(I never should have let you slip through my arms)

As the sun sets tonight
(I never should have let you go)
I'll hold you with all that I am
(I never should have let you slip through my arms)

I never should have let you go
Promise me you'll stay with me forever, forever
I never should have let you go
Promise me you'll stay with me forever, forever
I never should have let you go
Promise me you'll stay with me forever, forever

Forgive me for running so quickly to the outside
Forgive me for running so quickly to the outside
