"Hold On My Heart"

Am I the only one
Who's sitting up at night
With the light on, thinking
Am I the only one
Who's pondering the thought
Of us
And if there is
And if there ever was

You see, I'm not so good at keeping
A hold on my heart
See, it's writhing at the sight of you
I'm trying everything to get
A hold on my heart

Am I the only one
Not good at being guarded
When my heart is, beating
Am I the only one
Who's had to hash it out
With God
And what He wills
And what my heart wants

You see, I'm not so good at keeping
A hold on my heart
See, it's writhing at the sight of you
I'm trying everything to get
A hold on my heart

And see, the nights are passing by
As I'm sitting here and wondering why
I can't get you off my mind
Sorting through the possibilities
The angles and adversities
What it'd take to make you mine
It can only take time

There's a hold on my heart
To raise it from the dead someday
Feels like it's still on layaway
So I guess for now I'll lay awake
And pray this aching goes away
Someday
