Loving Hold
[Verse 1]
I gave it all, got nothing left to give
A punch drunk heart, yeah you got the best of me
We got tattoos that place just down the street
You were my baby blue you said always I was your James Dean
[Pre]
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why
[Chorus]
Why do you keep me in your loving hold
You asked me if I’d stay forever and I said no, I said no
I tell myself I don’t want you no more
How can it be that the falling is so damn short
And oh forgetting takes so long
You keep me in your loving hold, hold
[Verse 2]
I made a call for reasons still unknown
In the name of freedom, maybe I was better off alone
Fell to my knees, stole your last smoke
I called a cab and watched you as you folded all my clothes
[Pre]
So why, why, why, why, why, why, why
[Chorus]
Why do you keep me in your loving hold
You asked me if I’d stay forever and I said no, I said no
I tell myself I don’t want you no more
How can it be that the falling is so damn short
And oh forgetting takes so long
You keep me in your loving hold, hold
[Pre]
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why
[Chorus]
Why do you keep me in your loving hold
You asked me if I’d stay forever and I said no, I said no
I tell myself I don’t want you no more
How can it be that the falling is so damn short
And oh forgetting takes so long
You keep me in your loving hold, hold
[Outro]
Well baby I can’t sleep
And I’m thinking about your kiss
I’m stepping on crosses
How we ended up like this
Well I said no, well I said no
La la, la la, la la, la la
La la, la la, la la, la la
La la, la la, la la, la la
La la, la la, la la, la la
I gave it all, got nothing left to give
A punch drunk heart, yeah you got the best of me
We got tattoos that place just down the street
You were my baby blue you said always I was your James Dean
[Pre]
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why
[Chorus]
Why do you keep me in your loving hold
You asked me if I’d stay forever and I said no, I said no
I tell myself I don’t want you no more
How can it be that the falling is so damn short
And oh forgetting takes so long
You keep me in your loving hold, hold
[Verse 2]
I made a call for reasons still unknown
In the name of freedom, maybe I was better off alone
Fell to my knees, stole your last smoke
I called a cab and watched you as you folded all my clothes
[Pre]
So why, why, why, why, why, why, why
[Chorus]
Why do you keep me in your loving hold
You asked me if I’d stay forever and I said no, I said no
I tell myself I don’t want you no more
How can it be that the falling is so damn short
And oh forgetting takes so long
You keep me in your loving hold, hold
[Pre]
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why
[Chorus]
Why do you keep me in your loving hold
You asked me if I’d stay forever and I said no, I said no
I tell myself I don’t want you no more
How can it be that the falling is so damn short
And oh forgetting takes so long
You keep me in your loving hold, hold
[Outro]
Well baby I can’t sleep
And I’m thinking about your kiss

Well I said no, well I said no
La la, la la, la la, la la
La la, la la, la la, la la
La la, la la, la la, la la
La la, la la, la la, la la
