Holding On to Nothing lyrics

Sometimes I see his face

I want to hold you but it feels unsafe

Too scared to give my heart up now

I'm not brave enough to play my part now

Can you guarantee that you'll stay

Here with me, with me

Feels strange like a foreign thing

I'm still waiting for the love to kick in

Sometimes when I watch you sleeping

I keep hand to check you're breathing

It's not fair, not your fault

Not at all, not at all

Once bitten, twice shy

I try and I try, I try

Cause I'm holding on to nothing

I'm holding on to nothing

Once bitten, twice shy

I can't seem to find the strength

What's the point in keeping you at arm's length

I want to love you but I can't imagine

What I'd do if the worst did happen

Can you guarantee that you'll stay

Here with me, with me

Once bitten, twice shy

I try and I try, I try

Cause I'm holding on to nothing

I'm holding on to nothing

Once bitten, twice shy

Where I've been, never thought

No I won't go back

Couldn't take anymore

I'm not going back

Going back, going back

Once bitten, twice shy

I try and I try, I try

Cause I'm holding on to nothing

I'm holding on to nothing

Once bitten, twice shy
