Everybody Knows

[Verse 1]

You were never a soldier, you were never a prize

You were never a song in my eyes

Yeah, you are childhood, twisted and disguised

Oh, I am drowning in a world that's always been dry

You're the sun I never see rise

Yeah, it is midnight but my day only just arrived

[Pre-Chorus]

I never breathe the air without you

Somehow entering my mind

I only breathe the air to keep you inside

So you would always be mine

[Chorus]

Should have never let you go

Everybody knows, everybody knows

Should have never let you go

Everybody knows, everybody knows

Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let it go

Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let it go

[Verse 2]

You were never a stranger, you were never unkind

But I had fiction on my side

Yeah, I had fiction strongly on my side

[Pre-Chorus]

I never kept you like a secret, I never tried to make you hide

I only ever meant to keep you inside

So you would always be mine

[Chorus]

Should have never let you go

Everybody knows, everybody knows

Should have never let you go

Everybody knows, everybody knows

Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let it go

Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let it go

[Chorus]

Should have never let you go

Everybody knows, everybody knows

Should have never let you go

Everybody knows, everybody knows

Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let go

Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let go

[Outro]

Should have never let you go

Everybody knows, everybody knows

Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let go
