Menurut Hutchcraft, "Kedua sisi yang berbeda itu selalu membuatku kagum. Suatu kondisi antara keputusasaan dan cinta pandangan pertama selalu berhasil membuatmu merasakan melankolis. Sesuatu yang melodramatis dan mampu memacu imajinasi orang."
Hurts memang memiliki ciri khas yang kuat dalam lirik dengan kisah, makna serta pemikiran yang mendalam.
Theo sendiri mengungkapkan kalau lagu-lagu yang mereka tulis mengisahkan tentang harapan untuk terenggut dari keputusasaan. Lanjutnya lagi, momentum ketertarikan itu menyukakan dirinya untuk berpikir tentang perubahan dari kegelapan menjadi terang secara drastis. Itulah sebabnya ia selalu menuliskan lagu tentang harapan.
Lagu ini menjadi salah satu penegas ciri khas dari Hurts dengan rasa electro, aplikasi synthesizer dipadukan nuansa yang suram dari vokal Theo yang membayangi.

Lyrics:
On a bridge across the seven on a Saturday night,
Susie meets the man of her dreams
He says that he got in trouble and if she doesn't mind,
He doesn't want the company
But there's something in the air
They share a look in silence and everything is understood.
Susie grabs her man and puts a grip on his hand
As the rain puts a tear in his eye
She says:
Don't let go! Never give up - it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go! Never give up - it's such a wonderful life
Driving through the city to the temple station,
Cries into the leather sea,
And Susie knows the baby was a family man,
But the world has got him down on his knees.
So she throws him at the wall and kisses burn like fire,
And suddenly he starts to believe,
He takes her in his arms he doesn't know why,
But it seems that he begins to see:
Don't let go! Never give up - it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go! Never give up - it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go! Never give up - it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go! Never give up - it's such a wonderful life
Don't let go! Never give up!
Don't let go! Never give up - it's such a wonderful life
