Why do you have to be everything i'm looking for
Why do you have to be something that i don't have
Why do our worlds collide when you live far on the other side
There must be a million miles between everything we are
Why do i miss you when i've never had you and
Why do i give something that you've never earned
Chorus:
Why are you holding my heart
Why are you holding my heart (when you don't even know)
You're holding my heart
Why are you holding my heart
When you don't even know
Know that you hold the keys
I shouldn't have put into your hands
Without knowing anything
Without knowing enough
How do i fight something when i'm so tired of feeling
And why do i give what you haven't yet deserved
Chorus:
Why are you holding my heart
Why are you holding my heart (when you don't even know)
You're holding my heart
Why are you holding my heart
When you don't even know
Bridge:
It's been three years, three years too long
I've climbed this hill
I've prayed to rewrite the song
But when i see you all my walls fall down, down, down
Down, down, down
