Emily Kinney
Holding Your Hand in Nashville
[Verse 1]
We got problems to figure out
We got habits we need to change
We got a whole world pushing you and me to rearrange
But when it’s quiet, when it’s dark
When I match my breath to the beat of my heart
And when I’m praying for answers
It always comes the same
My phone lights up
Baby, it’s your name

[Pre-Chorus]
And I’ve been drinking, but I got no buzz
And all the glitter just looks like dust
June gloom gray day
I wish that it were blue
God, I wish I were with you

[Chorus]
I took the last flight, late night, LAX
Tried my best to get some sleep
We’ve been keeping our distance
Skimming the surface
But it’s clear I’m in real deep
Tried to close the case with the tears on my face
And my friends are sure we’re a done deal
But here I am again
Holding your hand in Nashville
[Verse 2]
I think some sunshine could do you good
But you don’t wanna do what I think you should
And now we’re walking round Lockeland Springs to happy hour
God, I wish this were forever

[Pre-Chorus]
And now we’re drinking till we’re unstable
And now I’m crying at the table
Windows down, hair messed up in the passenger seat
You’re still the one to beat

[Chorus]
I took the last flight, late night, LAX
Tried my best to get some sleep
We’ve been keeping our distance
Skimming the surface
But it’s clear I’m in real deep
Tried to close the case with the tears on my face
And my friends are sure we’re a done deal
But here I am again
Holding your hand in Nashville

Ohh-oh, ohh
Ohh-oh, ohh
[Outro]
Running Shelby Hills through another season
Can’t stop myself, can’t stand to reason
And I can’t help the way I feel
So here I am again
Holding your hand in Nashville
