Hold It Together

When I left your house the first time

I had this feeling like I left something behind

I check both of my pockets, had my keys and my wallet

And my necklace and my phone

How am I missing something that I didn't know existed like a week ago?

When I kissed your lips the first time

I had this feeling like I left something behind

I spent eighteen months thinking I was messed up

And I'd never learned to let it go

Now here you are, shaking the fear

That love could only ever be what I've already known

I say the right thing, it's kind of my thing

Losing myself trying to fix everything

It shifts from my past, I know you get that

It's just what I learned and all that I've had

Love don't work if I don't hold it together

It all gets worse if I don't hold it together

And I'm afraid to love this way forever

I wanna let you know me ways I never would have let her

Take my heart and we can hold it together

This is nothing like the first time

You don't remind me of a thing

And we both got memories

But when you're next to me, all that I see

Is you in front of me

I say the right thing, it's kind of my thing

Losing myself trying to fix everything

Love don't work if I don't hold it together

It all gets worse if I don't hold it together

And I'm afraid to love this way forever

I wanna let you know me ways I never would have let her

Take my heart and we can hold it together

Could this work if I don't hold it together?

Of all my habits I just like you better

I wanna let you know me ways I never would have let her

Take my heart and we can hold it together

Hold it together

Hold it together
