Would Have Held You Longer

Hey, how long has it been
Since you ran and did me in?
So afraid to be alone
Too scared to say it
Scared to let me know
Cause it was pride
That got in the way
It don't mean we can try
To turn the page

If I'd 'a known we feel alone
Rather than let you go
I would've held you longer
If I'd 'a known we feel alone
Rather than let you go
I would've held you longer

Been so long since our time
Things don't mean so much now
By the wayside
Time has had its way with us
Smoothing edges
Lifting spirits up

Cause it was pride
That got in the way
It don't mean we can try
To turn the page

If I'd 'a known we feel alone
Rather than let you go
I would've held you longer
If I'd 'a known we feel alone
Rather than let you go
I would've held you longer

I think of wasted time
It's no wonder we build up defenses
Let's come to our senses
Don't need a reason or rhyme
Apprehension can't rule us no longer
We've grown stronger

If I'd 'a known we feel alone
Rather than let you go
I would've held you longer
If I'd 'a known we feel alone
Rather than let you go
I would've held you longer
