Sometimes I Hold You
From the album Runway Lights

VERSE 1
If you can’t read the writing in the card I couldn’t find
If you can’t see the words I tried tracing in the sky
You’re what keeps me going when I am running dry
I need you and I love you to need me

CHORUS
Sometimes I hold you because it’s me who needs you
Sometimes I hold you so you can feel my love

VERSE 2
If the day comes and goes and I don’t give what you deserve
Shake me from my moments so I can remind you of my words
That loving you is clear in a world that’s often blurred
I need you and I love you to need me

CHORUS x2

VERSE 3
Days escape us, baby, I want to still my time with you
We’ll turn and years will disappear with the sacred morning dew
But we must pause enough to let our love come through
I need you and I love you to need me

CHORUS x4
