Don’t Let Go Lyrics by Gretchen and the Pickpockets

Gretchen and the Pickpockets (LP)

2014

[Verse 1]
Oh, he was eighteen years old
Never left his home, but sought a stupid goal
And his mommy would cry, while his daddy would lie
And he would sit in his room all alone
Just wishin' that he died
[Chorus]
But don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Oh, but he was such a sucker for the only thing that came in his dreams
[Verse 2]
Oh, so he'd sit in his room
Constantly countin' till the time of his doom
And he wondered why he never got up and tried
But he would sit in his room all alone
Just wishin' that he died
[Chorus]
But don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Oh, 'cause he was such a sucker for the only thing that came in his dreams
[Bridge]
Oh, his dreams, they would fight
And the fear'd pull him down, and he'd try to get up
And he'd try, and he'd try, and he'd try
(One, two, three)
[Pre-Chorus]
But he'd sit in his room
Constantly countin' till the time of his doom
And they wondered why he never got up and tried
But he would sit in his room all alone
Just wishin' that he died
[Chorus]
But don't let go
Don't let go
Don't let go
Oh, 'cause he was such a sucker for the only thing that came in his dreams
