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 we never really seemed to get that high And now I sit here laughing at the time that past me by It's time It's times like these, when I feel I'm on my knees begging Please don't go 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 of you I found I lost myself in search of you I was holding you so tight and you were holding him But you left the door so wide open That I was sure you'd come back in And now the only time I can hold you is in my mind And that doesn't seem to fill me up inside So 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 of you I found I lost myself 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 wasn't lying 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 tightly But now I've let you go 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 of you I found I lost myself in search of you
