[Verse 1] Most of the rebels sleep Boots by the wall I rise from my bed Cross that narrow hall Loretta’s lashes rest Like a blade laid down We were kids with blankets In a different town Now the room is packed But it feels the same Cramped in all this steel We still know each name [Pre-Chorus] I don’t wait I never do I climb in close Back to you My hand on the frame My heart in my throat I’ve lost you once And I still feel the smoke [Chorus] Don’t let go Loretta, don’t let go Don’t let go I need to know How are you doing? Tell me true Don’t let go I’m here with you [Verse 2] Under worn-out sheets You stare at the roof Back on those sleepovers Laughing till it hurt Pizza boxes, floorboards Sneaking out the light Now we share one bed In the black of night I prop on one arm You lie still and read That old look in your eyes Cuts right into me [Pre-Chorus] I hear the past In your breathing now All I’ve got Is this moment somehow If you fade from me I’ll come undone I fought for your trust And I won’t outrun [Chorus] Don’t let go Loretta, don’t let go Don’t let go I need to know How are you doing? Tell me true Don’t let go I’m here with you [Bridge] If the walls come down If the world goes cold I’ll be the hand You can always hold I know the cost I know the scar It was hell to earn This fragile spark So stay in the dark Stay close to me I’d tear through grief Just to keep you free [Final Chorus] Don’t let go Loretta, don’t let go Don’t let go I need to know How are you doing? Tell me true Don’t let go I’m here with you Don’t let go Loretta, don’t let go Don’t let go I’m still with you
