The song’s tender lyrics talk about fallin...
[Verse 1]
I met you in the dark, you lit me up
You made me feel as though I was enough
We danced the night away, we drank too much
I held your hair back when you were throwin' up
[Pre-Chorus]
Then, you smiled over your shoulder
For a minute, I was stone-cold sober
I pulled you closer to my chest
And you asked me to stay over
I said, "I already told ya
I think that you should get some rest"
[Chorus]
I knew I loved you then, but you'd never know
'Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go
I knew I needed you, but I never showed
But I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old
[Post-Chorus]
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go
[Verse 2]
I'll wake you up with some breakfast in bed
I'll bring you coffee with a kiss on your head
And I'll take the kids to school, wave them goodbye
And I'll thank my lucky stars for that night
[Pre-Chorus]
When you looked over your shoulder
For a minute, I forget that I'm older
I wanna dance with you right now, woah
And you look as beautiful as ever
And I swear that every day, you'll get better
You make me feel this way somehow
[Chorus]
I'm so in love with you and I hope you know
Darlin', your love is more than worth its weight in gold
We've come so far, my dear, look how we've grown
And I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old
[Post-Chorus]
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go
[Bridge]
I wanna live with you even when we're ghosts
'Cause you were always there for me when I needed you most
[Chorus]
I'm gonna love you till my lungs give out
I promise till death we part, like in our vows
So, I wrote this song for you, now everybody knows
That it's just you and me till we're grey and old
[Post-Chorus]
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go
Oh, just say you won't let go

The inspiration was to look at someone’s life and the path through it with a partner. Some of it is personal and some of it is inspired by people around me as well as imagining what life is like in other people’s relationships.
I love songwriting and it’s something I never stop thinking about and d...
There is an old guy in the video that was just amazing. He’s an incredible actor. Do you remember the film Titanic, when you see those two old people and as the ship’s going down? The two old people are on the bed together, and you can see them just holding onto each other. I think that such a power...
I wrote it in Los Angeles with a guy called Steve Solomon. It was just a day like any other. I was just doing back-to-back-to-back songwriting sessions, and I spoke to my A&R, and she was like, “Look bro. There’s not enough love songs on this album. It’s quite personal. Have a listen to some lov...
