You could no more kill the darkness than you could raise the sun
And the night was cold and black like the barrel of a gun
And I remember the tremble in the words you spoke
As you balanced there on the brink at the end of your rope
And you came so close, you came so close
You came so close to letting go, to letting go
And you knew she would hate you, she would kick you out
'Cause you were lying in the bed that you made when you broke your vow
But then you woke in the wasteland of the truth you told
And you turned to see she stayed, she was bright as a band of gold
And you came so close, you came so close
You came so close to letting go, to letting go
So don't let go 'cause you never know
Don't let go 'cause you never know for sure
Don't let go 'cause you never know
You'll never know
And the sky in Nashville, it can bend you low
'Cause the winter here is gray without a trace of snow
But there is no shadow on the silver stars
And the colder the night is, well, the closer the heavens are
And so we're so close, we're so close
We're so close, we're so close
So don't let go 'cause this I know
Don't let go, this I know for sure
Don't let go 'cause this I know
This I know for sure 'cause there's still hope
