when you get this message
i'll be high above the earth
thinking 'bout the promises that i keep
when i touch down in texas
land in dallas/fort worth
i will call you up and wake you from your sleep
i will not let go
i will not let go
i will not let go of you
i will not let go
i will not let go
i will not let go of you
Verse 2
who or what controls
the fates of men i cannot say
but i keep arriving safely home to you
and i humbly acknowledge
that i won't always get my way
but darling death will have to pry my fingers loose
