Chris will
release
“Never Ever
Gone” on
Aug. 19.
The single
comes from
Cagle’s latest
project “My Life’s Been a
Country Song.”
“For some reason this song
reminded me of something
Tom Petty would sing,” Cagle
said. “Not one line, not one
lyric, not one note lets you
down. It’s the only love song
with a negative connotation
that I’ve heard that makes me
feel good.
