Dierks Bentley - You Hold Me Together lyrics

rate me

By now I shoulda been broken

On the rocks of rising life's ocean

Just another ship lost at sea

By now I shoulda been scattered

In the wind of my lonesome travels

Like a thousand dandelion seeds

And I shoulda come unraveled

At the seams like a well worn sweater

But you hold me together

My hope shoulda been shattered

Like a bottle out behind some tavern

From a fight that you had no chance to win

My dreams shoulda been ashes

Gone up in smoke like a book of matches

Tossed away and never gonna burn again

And I shoulda worn right through

Like an old cowboy's boot leather

But you hold me together

Chorus

I feel your love surrounding me

Strong enough that I can believe

There won't ever be a storm that I can't weather

Cause you hold me together

(X2)

I shoulda been long forgotten

Just a footnote down at the bottom

Of a page in the book of what coulda been's

My heart should lie in pieces

On the ground like a goodbye letter

You hold me together

(Repeat)<br />

<br />
