I Can Never Give My Heart Away Again

I wrote “I Can Never Give My Heart Away Again” for my wife. — I’ve lived long enough to know that nearly everything in life can change. Plans change. Circumstances change. People change. But through every season of my life, her love has remained constant.

This song isn’t about searching for love. My search is over. I already found the woman who knows all of me, accepts all of me, and has stood beside me through everything.

When I say I can never give my heart away again, there is no sadness in it. There is certainty.

I gave my heart to her completely. It is hers. It has been hers for a long time.

And it always will be.

VERSE 1

I was driftin’ through the dark,
Just tryin’ to find my way.
Then your love came down from heaven—
Girl, you showed me where to stay.

VERSE 2

You held my broken pieces,
Never asked me to pretend.
I knew my search was over—
You’re my beginning and my end.

CHORUS

Since I gave my heart to my one true love,
It’s yours until the end.
You’ve got it all, forever more—
I can never give my heart away again.

VERSE 3

I see you in the morning light
And in every song I play.
Your smile turns the silence gold,
Takes my empty Blues away.

BRIDGE

If I live a hundred lifetimes,
I’ll find you every time.
You’re my soul’s one destination,
The reason in my rhyme.

CHORUS

Since I gave my heart to my one true love,
It’s yours until the end.
You’ve got it all, that won’t change—
I can never give my heart away again.

OUTRO

I gave it to you, baby…
You’re the only one who’ll ever have it…

Since I gave my heart to my one true love…
I can never give my heart away again.
