Never Gonna See Her Again Lyrics

I'm not trying to break you down

We ain't tryin' - we ain't tryin' at all

And it's a fine, fine line - to try and hold it all together

By the time you read this message, you'll be gone

Told me that you needed a sign

I bet you didn't need to wait too long

I made the sign of the skull I made the sign of the rose

You're by the side of the road and I'm just trying to see

And you're just trying to burn it all down again

City ain't as far as it seemed

Or maybe we're a little bit older now

Pretty as a picture wonder if she's gonna know your name

Wonder if she's gonna know you didn't want her before

And baby you could hold my hand

I'll try to make it better

But we broke that line - better off forgetting it

And one last time

You're never gonna hold her again

And maybe I could burn like that

Loving you forever

But I can't turn back

Keeping it together

But I can't do that

Never gonna hold her again

And baby it's a trick of the light

And maybe it's a matter of time

You think you'll walk right up knocking on the door

And she'll look right up - then you'll know for sure

Oh but baby hope don't work like that it don't work at all

Told me you could work it out

Told me you were working again

Ask me if I think it's right - go on ask me like you never did

Don't even know her name

And baby you could hold my hand

I'll try to make it better

But we broke that line - better off forgetting it

And one last time

You're never gonna hold her again

And maybe I could burn like that

Loving you forever

But I can't turn back

Keeping it together

But I can't do that

Never gonna hold her again

Don't even know her name …
