The Way You Hold Me

The Way You Hold Me

How many times can we do this?

We know it’s not wise

Even though we’re both looking for a way to escape

From a life that won’t suffice

You’ve always thought of me like a fantasy

And that’s how I think of you

This is real what we feel

 

I won’t forget The Way You Hold Me

You unfold me you expose my bones

My heart naked, I’m forsaken, now, forever I’m’ yours

 

We come face to face again then we part just like the wind

And nothing happens but a kiss

 

You melt me down, you melt me down

 

You know the truth about what I said

And you know that I see you, standing there

You know that we are tied to each other’s stormy ride

So why can’t we be true when it comes to me and you

 

I won’t forget The Way You Hold Me

You unfold me, you expose my bones

My heart naked, I’m forsaken, now forever, I’m yours

 

And you agree with me, blessed be the ones who’ve laid down their guns

Many keys the pain, coming from the mystic shame

When charity comes round, to save the one who drown

Survival is the key, but what about safety

What about safety, what about our safety, what about our safety

 

I won’t forget The Way You Hold Me

You unfold me, you expose my bones

My heart naked, I’m forsaken, now forever, I’m’ yours
