I Wish I Held You Longer
I somehow made it through the first day.
I got to work and I got home With the dishes from the weekend waiting for me, Standing in the kitchen all alone. And I wish I held you longer. What was keeping me from trying? I wish I held you longer and maybe I could keep from crying. I could take comfort in my music: Eight simple notes so tried and true. And arrange myself a perfect melody, But even that just ain't as beautiful as you. And I wish I held you longer. What was keeping me from trying? I wish I held you longer and maybe I could keep from crying. The last time I looked in your eyes, With those tender tears a-flowing, My destination was laid out for me, But I still don't know where the hell I'm going. And I wish I held you longer. What was keeping me from trying? I wish I held you longer and maybe I could keep from crying. |
