Song Lyrics

Everyone likes the same stupid things
Everyone sings the same love songs
Everyone's good at busting their ways
But we just haven't mastered the fall

And I know that I've been broken since the first time
That my mother put my foot in the shoe
For the first time in such a long time, I need you

My darling, you make me strong
You make me all the things I wanna be before you're gone
My only, my only one
I've never known what I have got 'til it's barely holding on
Holding on, holding on
Just keep holding on

Every time that I think that I'm moving
Turns around, I'm just spinning in place
By the time that I know what I'm after
I want someone to take it away

And I know that I've been broken since the first time
That my father put me down on the floor
For the first time in such a long time, I need more

My darling, you make me strong
You make me all the things I wanna be before you're gone
My only, my only one
I've never known what I have got 'til it's barely holding on
Holding on, holding on
We're barely holding on
Holding on, holding on
Just keep holding on

My heart was in it
Would you never let it go?
If my heart was in it
Would you never let me go?
If your heart was in it
Would you never let her go?
If you heart was in it
If your heart was in it

My darling, you make me strong
I'm everything I wanna be before you're gone
My only, my only one
I've never known what I have got 'til it's barely holding on
Holding on, holding on
We're barely holding on
Holding on, holding on
Just keep holding on
