William Tell - You Can Hold Me Down lyrics

rate me

Sometimes I get up,<br />

just to watch you sleep.<br />

You know when I get high,<br />

it's just to be near you.<br />

But this can't sustain.<br />

<br />

You're so soft, soft as your voice.<br />

It takes me apart, it gives me away<br />

piece by piece, day after day.<br />

<br />

You could hold me down,<br />

I know you'd like to change,<br />

but you don't know how.<br />

Everything looks grey here in your shadow of doubt,<br />

but you could still hold me down.<br />

<br />

Yeah, I get so tired of trying to turn you around,<br />

when all of my words keep falling by the wayside.<br />

My eyes wide, you've got nothing to stay still you can't turn away now.<br />

<br />

You could hold me down,<br />

I know you'd like to change,<br />

but you don't know how.<br />

Yeah, everything gets grey here in your shadow of doubt.<br />

but I want to hold you,<br />

the way that you hold me.<br />

<br />

I need just a touch to move me,<br />

I need you who sees right through me,<br />

Yeah, I can't stand to hear you say<br />

your yesterdays were all my mistakes<br />

Why do I get so much when you give up?<br />

<br />

You could hold me down,<br />

I know you'd like to change,<br />

but you don't know how.<br />

Everything looks grey here in your shadow of doubt,<br />

but I'm going to hold you,<br />

the way that you hold me down
