HOLD ME TO THIS PLACE

 

HOLD ME TO THIS PLACE

THE CLOCK IS COUNTING DOWN THE NIGHT

 

AND I'M STILL HERE WONDERING

 

IF THIS AND THAT

 

HAS ANY KIND OF CHANCE

 

HOLDING ON LETTING GO

 

BACK AND FORTH JUST FOR SHOW

 

I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE I CAN DO

 

SHE SHOULD BE HERE

 

HOLDING ME BACK

 

INSTEAD OF A NIGHT

 

DRESSED IN GRAY AND BLACK

 

WAITING FOR THE VERY THING I LACK

 

HEY GIRL I'M STILL HERE

 

WAITING FOR YOU

 

THE DANGERS TIED TO THIS

 

I'VE SEEN LESSER SHIPS GO DOWN

 

 

IF YOU CAN'T HOLD ME 

 

 TO THIS PLACE I FOUND 

 

THEN TAKE IT ALL AWAY NOW

 

OR MAKE IT SOMETHING GOOD NOW

 

THAT WE CAN SEE AND FEEL

 

EMBRACE IT IF ITS EVEN CLOSE TO REAL 

 

 YOU CALLED ME UP

 

  YOU SAID SOMETHING

I UNDERSTAND

 

YOU WERE FOLLOWING YOUR HEART

 

IT ALWAYS COMES WITH A PRICE

 

WHEN ITS WORTH IT

 

IT FEELS SO NICE

 

ITS BEEN SO LONG

 

SINCE I FELT YOU HERE

 

CLOSE ENOUGH FOR LOVE

 

SO NEAR

 

WOULD YOU DROWN WITH ME

 

RID ME OF THIS INSECURITY 

 

MAKE ME SURE ITS

 

 ALL ABOUT YOU AND I 

WE HAVE TO TRY

OR THERE IT GOES

I DON'T WANT TO SEE IT

JUST AS IT COULD BE

I NEED YOU TO SEE THE SAME THING

IF YOU CAN'T HOLD ME

TO THIS PLACE I FOUND

THEN TAKE IT AWAY NOW

OR MAKE IT SOMETHING GOOD NOW

THAT WE CAN SEE AND FEEL

SOMETHING WE CAN EMBRACE

IF ITS EVEN CLOSE TO REAL
