Never Get It Back - Gabby Barrett

You live in that three bedroom, two bath house your whole life

Think that you’ll never grow up, then you’re packin' up

Puttin' boxes into the back in your parents' driveway

You drive too slow, and leave the only home you know

'Cause times like these, they go too fast

You blink like that

And you never get it back, never get it back

Hold today like it’s your last

Once you let go

And you never get it back, never get it back

Soak it all in while you can

'Cause one of these seconds, you can’t

So don’t let it slip through your hands

I replay all of your voicemails to remind me

What you sound like, and I still smile

I’d give anything to drive halfway across this country

To feel you hug me

To hear you say you love me

'Cause times like these, they go too fast

You blink like that

And you never get it back, never get it back

Hold today like it’s your last

Once you let go

And you never get it back, never get it back

Hold 'em close, let 'em know

Don’t hold nothing back

I don’t know and you don’t know

Just how long we have

Hold 'em close, let 'em know

Don’t hold nothing back

I don’t know and you don’t know

Just how long we have

'Cause times like these, they go too fast

You blink like that

And you never get it back, never get it back

Hold today like it’s your last

Once you let go

And you never get it back, never get it back

Soak it all in while you can

'Cause one of these seconds, you can’t

So don’t let it slip through your hands, yeah

Oh-oh, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah
