You Hold Me Together

[Verse 1]

By now I should a been broken

On the rocks of rising life's ocean

Just another ship lost at sea

By now I should a been scattered

In the wind of my lonesome travels

Like a thousand dandelion seeds

And I should a come unraveled

At the seams like a well worn sweater

But you hold me together

My hope should a been shattered

Like a bottle out behind some tavern

From a fight that you had no chance to win

My dreams should a been ashes

Gone up in smoke like a book of matches

Tossed away and never gonna burn again

And I should a worn right through

Like an old cowboy's boot leather

But you hold me together

[Chorus][X2]

I feel your love surrounding me

Strong enough that I can believe

There won't ever be a storm that I can't weather

Cause you hold me together

[Verse 2]

I should a been long forgotten

Just a footnote down at the bottom

Of a page in the book of what could a been's

My heart should lie in pieces

On the ground like a goodbye letter

[Outro]

You hold me together
