Holding You
Yearning Echoes: Embracing the Past, Longing for Love
Lyrics
Walking down the street from the day we met and I think of you
Reflecting on the day of the initial meeting and reminiscing about you.
Even after everything, I can't forget to think of you
Despite everything that has happened, the thoughts of you linger in my mind.
What am I supposed to do? Everybody seems to look like you
Feeling lost as everyone around seems to resemble you.
Even when the memories are put to bed, I think of you
Even when trying to put memories to rest, thoughts of you persist.
Don't know what I was doing
Expressing confusion about past actions.
Say I haven't ruined all the love we had before
Questioning if previous actions have damaged the love once shared.
What am I holding on to? I should be holding you
Contemplating what is being clung to and realizing it should be you.
Thinking 'bout how I want you doing those things you do
Reflecting on the desire for the partner and their unique qualities.
You're all I ever need, baby, I lost you, now I see
Realizing the partner's significance and regretting the loss.
What am I holding on to? I should be holding you
Reiterating the realization that one should be holding onto the partner.
I should be holding you, I should be holding you
Emphasizing the longing to hold onto the partner.
Walking down the street where I broke your heart and I think of you
Recalling a painful moment on a street where the relationship suffered.
Holding it together 'til I fall apart when I think of you
Struggling to maintain composure until emotions finally break.
What am I supposed to say? Never thought that I could feel this way
Expressing surprise at the depth of emotions experienced.
Wishing you and I could have another start when I think of you
Wishing for a chance to start anew with the partner.
Don't know what I was doing
Reiterating confusion about past actions.
Say I haven't ruined all the love we had before
Questioning whether love from the past has been irreparably damaged.
What am I holding on to? I should be holding you
Reflecting on the need to hold onto the partner instead of something else.
Thinking 'bout how I want you doing those things you do
Thinking about the partner's actions and their impact.
You're all I ever need, baby, I lost you, now I see
Acknowledging that the partner was everything needed and regretting the loss.
What am I holding on to? I should be holding you
Reiterating the realization that one should be holding onto the partner.
I should be holding you, I should be holding you
Emphasizing the longing to hold onto the partner.
Don't know what I was doing
Repeating the confusion about past actions.
(Turn and run away like I knew for sure)
Suggesting a desire to turn away definitively, but uncertainty remains.
Say I haven't ruined (all of the love that we had before)
Denying the complete ruin of the love shared in the past.
Don't know what I was doing
Reiterating confusion about past actions.
Say I haven't ruined all the love we had before
Repeating the denial of complete ruin of past love.
What am I holding on to? I should be holding you
Reflecting on the need to hold onto the partner instead of something else.
Thinking 'bout how I want you doing those things you do
Thinking about the partner's actions and their impact.
You're all I ever need, baby, I lost you, now I see
Acknowledging that the partner was everything needed and regretting the loss.
What am I holding on to? I should be holding you
Reiterating the realization that one should be holding onto the partner.
I should be holding you, I should be holding you
Emphasizing the longing to hold onto the partner.
I should be holding you, I should be holding you
Repeating the emphasis on the longing to hold onto the partner.
