Holding Out - Sharon Van Etten

Written by：Sharon Van Etten

I was warned

I your humble Alamo kind of world

Around you and all you are

I was fooled by the way you take me seriously

Even when I'm joking

Damn damn damn damn

I'm not tired and I'm tired

I'm not calling out

Cross the street I was holding out

Holding out cross the table

I was holding out

Trying to find a lover like that holding out

Like the wind I was holding out

Staying still hoping no one else would see me

Hoping calm replacing silent trying tongues

Do I need a reason to hold you now

Cause I'd hold you now

Yeah I would hold you now

One night and all I need is one more day

Holding out something that feels okay

And the right thing to do is wait

Holding out

Holding out

Holding out for you

I am strange believed in fairy tales at a young age

Circumstance now I kick my self in the pants

And then you came to me in a far away way

And I'm bring you something I want you to have

It's the biggest part of my heart that I still got

Hoping arms

Know I'll be holding out

I'll be holding out

Holding out

I'll be holding out

Holding out

Holding out

Holding out

For you
