I know you're mad when you can't even look at me in my eyes
And when you say you're sad I need you better, make it worse when I try
But when you say nothin' it's like you stuck a knife in my side
I know the feeling, it's not easy being stuck with me tonight
To make things right
These things take time
So hold me, hold me till the river runs dry
I'm holdin', holdin' onto you for dear life
'Cause I never know the words to say
But you forgive me anyway
Even though we both know
I'm the reason you cry
Do you need a break, need some space, need a change of my ways?
Should I get away, get a place for a couple of days?
I'm afraid if I change you won't look at me the same
I wanna be your only shoulder when you have a bad day
So hold me, hold me till the river runs dry
I'm holdin', holdin' onto you for dear life
I never know the words to say
But you forgive me anyway
Even though we both know
I'm the reason you cry
We been arguin' more than we usually do
I know I deserve what you're puttin' me through
If you mean what you're sayin' and want me to go
If that's what you want then I want you to know
I'll stay the night
If that's alright?
To make things right
These things take time
So hold me, hold me till the river runs dry
I'm holdin', holdin' onto you for dear life
Because I never know the words to say
But you forgive me anyway
So hold me and hold me till the day that I die
