Never Let Me Go (Live At Madison Square Garden)

We all haven't played this next song for nearly ten years in the U.S tour, uhm
Because I was just like, "I'm never gonna sing this song again, ever, it's never gonna happen"
Because it reminded me of a time of being very young and very sad and very drunk
So I had strange feelings about it, uhm
But then, of course, what happened is you just did not stop fucking listening to it
Uhm, and that has been the way, uh, for the past fifteen years of making songs
Everything that I have tried to push away, every part of myself that I thought was too broken or messy
If I put it in a song, you always brought it back to me with love, and allowed
And allowed me to see it in a different way
So, as a thank you to everyone who has been with us for the last fifteen years
Uhm, I wanted to start playing it again
I also think I stopped playing it because it's really fucking hard to sing
It's really, hahaha, 'cause yeah, you know, I don't like it, I don't like it
But it's actually still really hard, but, uhm, as a thank you to everyone who's been with us, uhm
I wanted to sing this again for you

Looking up from underneath
Fractured moonlight on the sea
Reflections still look the same to me
As before I went under

And it's peaceful in the deep
Cathedral where you cannot breathe
No need to pray, no need to speak
Now I am under all

And it's breaking over me
A thousand miles down to the sea bed
Found the place to rest my head
(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go)

And the arms of the ocean are carrying me
And all this devotion was rushing out of me
And the crashes are heaven for a sinner like me
And the arms of the ocean delivered me

Though the pressure's hard to take
It's the only way I can escape
It seems a heavy choice to make
But now I am under, oh

And it's breaking over me
A thousand miles down to the sea bed
I found the place to rest my head
(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go)

And the arms of the ocean are carrying me
And all this devotion was rushing out of me
And the crashes are heaven for a sinner like me
And the arms of the ocean delivered me

And it's over and I'm going under
But I'm not giving up, I'm just giving in
Oh, I'm slipping underneath, ooh
So cold and so sweet

In the arms of the ocean, so sweet and so cold
And all this devotion, well, I never knew at all
And the crashes are heaven for a sinner released
In the arms of the ocean, deliver me

(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go) deliver me
(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go)

Deliver me, yeah (never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go) deliver me
(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go)

And it's over (never let me go, never let me go)
And I'm going under (never let me go, never let me go)
But I'm not giving up (never let me go, never let me go)
Just giving in (never let me go, never let me go)

Cold (never let me go, never let me go)
Sweet (never let me go, never let me go)
Ooh (never let me go, never let me go)
So cold and so sweet (never let me go, never let me go)

(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go)

(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go, never let me go)
(Never let me go)
