Lyrics:
Hold You In
Jack Rosies(PRS) /John Cirillo (ASCAP)
We had our toes in the sand
Getting high on dreams
I felt you rush through my bones
Like a cool ocean breeze
Why do summers have to end
Why's the winter air so thin
Our love was so much younger then
Chorus:
Ain't love a lot like breathing
You let it in; you let it out
You couldn't stop it if you tried
It could fill your nights with fire
Or run ice cold through your heart
Guess we're somewhere in between there tonight
I can't hold you in much longer
Now there's frost on the window
As cold as your kiss
We can't get warm anymore
If we go on like this
And we're struggling for air
Your bags at the foot of the stairs
Just cuz we're broken don't mean we don't care
Chorus:
My love I know you're leaving
There's nothing keeping you here now
I couldn't stop you if I tried
I used to fill your nights with fire
Now I'm a cold place in your heart
There's no somewhere in between here tonight
I can't hold you in much longer
I can't hold you in much longer
This is goodbye
