The porch light flickers in the midnight rain
I still taste your kiss driving down the lane
We said goodbye and let the engine die
But I want you back beneath this open sky
Your denim jacket sitting by the bedroom door
I'm walking barefoot on the hardwood floor
I hear the highway humming just a mile away
But all I want is your body here to stay
I feel the miles closing when I close my eyes
I feel the heat of all your whispered alibis
The silence in the dark is getting way too loud
I’m pulling you closer, breaking through the cloud
I’m holding on to nothing, but it feels like you
I’m holding on to every secret thing we do
The ghost of your touch sliding down my sleeve
I’m holding on to nothing, and I cannot leave
Holding on, holding on
Craving the warmth of your skin in the dark
The shadows dancing slowly on the unmade bed
I’m replaying every wicked little word you said
I try to let the country breeze wash you away
But the memory of your curves always makes me sway
I feel the miles closing when I close my eyes
I feel the heat of all your whispered alibis
The silence in the dark is getting way too loud
I’m pulling you closer, breaking through the cloud
I’m holding on to nothing, but it feels like you
I’m holding on to every secret thing we do
The ghost of your touch sliding down my sleeve
I’m holding on to nothing, and I cannot leave
Holding on, holding on
Craving the warmth of your skin in the dark
I keep reaching out to the empty space
Tracing the shape of a beautiful face
Listen to my soul as it calls your name
Can you hear Sayed in this burning flame
Lost inside a fire we can never save
Caught in the pull of a rising wave
I know I should let go, but I need you right here.
Just slide on over, let the world disappear.
I’m holding on to nothing, but it feels like you
I’m holding on to every secret thing we do
The ghost of your touch sliding down my sleeve
I’m holding on to nothing, and I cannot leave
