I was holding you so tight and you were holding me
|
So wrapped up in the moment I was feeling such security
|
And the first few weeks felt just like heaven,
|
but I never really seemed to get that high
|
So now I sit here laughing at the time that past me by.
|
Its times, times like these, when I'm down on my knees begging
|
please, oh please don't go, please don't go
|
As you slipped away I couldn't admit that we were
|
through
|
And as you slipped away
|
I found I lost myself in search of you
|
I found I lost myself in search of you, search of you
|
I was holding you tight and you were holding him
|
But now the only time I can hold you is in my mind
|
And that never seem to fill me up inside
|
Oh and yes I felt lonely and yes I felt a need
|
And you seemed to feel it necessary to make me see
|
That I was wrong and you were right
|
And that all my attempts were in vain
|
But I was pretty sure you'd turn around and want me back
|
again
|
And as you slipped away I couldn't admit that we were
|
through
|
And as you slipped away I found I lost myself in search you
|
I found I lost myself in search you, search of you,
|
always in search of you
|
I was holding you so tightly when you needed help
|
I guess insecurities catch up to you when you're lying to
|
yourself
|
But I never lie when I told you all that you could be
|
But it was no use, you never really ever listened to me
|
I was holding you so tight but now I've let you go.
