You tell me that you're leavin'
You say that ti me will slow the bleedin'
Of this heart that I'v e placed into your hands
I held it out to you
Now you give it back what am I supposed to do?
Oh I had a feeling
This day would co me and leave me reeling
I just want to run back in your arms again
But they're no longer there
To hold me safe inside to hold me anywhere
O oh if I c an't h ave yo u
Then I'll h ave to find a way to get thro ugh
Though I d on't w ant to
I ha ve to do my best to reca ll
That I'm thankful that I held you at al l
I miss you every morning and in the evening rain
Tonight it's pouring and I'm alone again
I count the seconds between the thoughts of you
I'm getting better baby I'm almost up to two
Oh you had your reasons and I know
Some folks are seasons they got to come and go
But I'm still tender (Still tender) I miss the summertime
When I could feel your love and I could still feel mine
O oh if I c an't h ave yo u
Then I'll h ave to find a way to get thro ugh
Though I d on't w ant to
I ha ve to do my best to rec all
That I'm thankful that I held you at all
You gave me everything
That I will need to walk thi s long road (Show me the way to get back)
Gave me a sense of pride
That I will carry with me a ll the way back home
O oh if I c an't h ave yo u
Then I'll h ave to find a way to get thro ugh
Though I d on't w ant to
I h ave to do my best to rec all
That I'm thankful that I held you at al l
I'm thankful that I h eld you
(I'm thankful that I h eld you)
I'm thankful that I h eld you
I'm thankful that I h eld you held you held you
(I'm thankful that I h eld you)
I'm I 'm I'm
Yeah y eah
(I'm thankful that I h eld you)
