About I Should've Never Let You Go

"I Should've Never Let You Go" is a pop song by Australian female group Bardot, and was the second single from their debut album Bardot (2000). It was co-written by Lotti Golden, Hinda Hicks and Tommy Faragher and produced by Tommy Faragher. This mid-tempo, soulful song was dominated by Katie Underwood who provided most of the main vocals, with Sophie Monk's high-pitched backing vocals providing harmonies throughout the track. Bardot did not perform the song after Underwood's mid-2001 departure for this reason. The single debuted at number 15 on the ARIA Singles Chart, peaking one place higher at number 14 and was certified gold. It was the 96th highest selling single in Australia for 2000. The single was a number 1 hit for Bardot in Singapore, but only spent three weeks in the New Zealand Top 40, peaking at number 25. The B-side "Do It for Love" is a cover version of a 1992 single by Dannielle Gaha, written by Paul Gray (ex-Wa Wa Nee) and R. Feldman. It was also recorded in Chinese by Prudence Liew as "Bei Ni Zong Huai" in 1993.

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, I, Oh, Oh, Oh, I.
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, I, Oh, Oh, Oh, I.
Seems we played a game, but lost along the way,
Somewhere we went wrong, I didn't have a clue.
Should've never let you go, baby don't you know,
It was all in my mind, was I such a fool.
To let you get away and now everyday,
There's nothing to defend.
My head was in the clouds and when I look around,
I won't give up - till you come back again..

[Chorus]
If I could turn back time, I never would've thought,
That I could lose you boy but now I know, I should've never let you go.
If I could have one wish, I'll be the first to tell you,
This is never what I wanted, no, I should've never let you go.

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, I, Oh, Oh, Oh, I.
I was confident, thought you were content,
How did we go wrong and now what can I do?
Should've never let you go, baby don't you know,
My tears are on the inside, how can it be true.
I let you get away, and now everyday,
There's nothing to defend.
My head was in the clouds and when I look around,
I won't give up - till you come back again.

[Chorus]

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,, Oh, Oh, Oh, I no, no, no.
I should've never let you go.
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,, Oh, Oh, Oh,
I should've never, should've never let you go,
I should've never let you go.
Should've never, should've never let you go, let you go.
Oh baby, oh baby, don't you know, don't you know,
I won't give up, no, no, no - till you come back again.

[Chorus: x2]
