By now I shoulda been broken
|
On the rocks of rising life's ocean
|
Just another ship lost at sea
|
By now I shoulda been scattered
|
In the wind of my lonesome travels
|
Like a thousand dandelion seeds
|
And I shoulda come unraveled
|
At the seams like a well worn sweater
|
But you hold me together
|
|
My hope shoulda been shattered
|
Like a bottle out behind some tavern
|
From a fight that you had no chance to win
|
My dreams shoulda been ashes
|
Gone up in smoke like a book of matches
|
Tossed away and never gonna burn again
|
And I shoulda worn right through
|
Like an old cowboy's boot leather
|
But you hold me together
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I feel your love surrounding me
|
Strong enough that I can believe
|
There won't ever be a storm that I can't weather
|
Cause you hold me together
|
[X2]
|
|
I shoulda been long forgotten
|
Just a footnote down at the bottom
|
Of a page in the book of what coulda been's
|
My heart should lie in pieces
|
On the ground like a goodbye letter
|
|
You hold me together
|
[Repeat]
|
|

You Hold Me Together
