Hold me cause I'm too close to breaking down
Hold me cause I'm too close to letting go
Too close to losing all control now
But I will never get too close to showing,
How much you don't know you mean to me
How much I can't stand to see you crying
It's not because you left me high
And it's not because I'm lonely
It's just because I'm too close to...
(Verse 1)
Too close to taking back what I said
Too close to giving you every chance to change your mind
Too close to making you forget just who you are
I could have loved you
I should have loved you
But just not this close...
(Chorus)
Hold me cause I'm too close to breaking down
Hold me cause I'm too close to letting go
Too close to losing all control now
But I will never get too close to showing,
How much you don't know you mean to me
How much I can't stand to see you crying
It's not because you left me high
And it's not because I'm lonely
It's just because I'm too close to...
(Verse 2)
Sometimes it's hard to let go
So I take a look at myself and I decide
I'm too close to holding onto anything
But this pain inside.
I'm a woman.
I should be strong.
But instead I have to carry on.
(Chorus)
Hold me cause I'm too close to breaking down
Hold me cause I'm too close to letting go
Too close to losing all control now
But I will never get too close to showing,
How much you don't know you mean to me
How much I can't stand to see you crying
It's not because you left me high
And it's not because I'm lonely
It's just because I'm too close to...
(Bridge)
Now that you're gone,
I've got a secret.
I really miss you.
(Oh, it's so hard to hide)
(Chorus)
Hold me cause I'm too close to breaking down
Hold me cause I'm too close to letting go
Too close to losing all control now
But I will never get too close to showing,
How much you don't know you mean to me
How much I can't stand to see you crying
It's not because you left me high
And it's not because I'm lonely
It's just because I'm too close to...
(Outro)
(Ooh, ooh) Hold me cause I'm...
(Ooh, ooh) Hold me cause I'm...
