I DON'T WANT TO HOLD YOU NOW Girl, we've shared so much I know your dreams And it's breaking my heart apart To know they don't include me I fought to play the hero Gave it my best try Though you're life's not mine to save But in this final moment Whispering goodbye Emotions flood me like a wave (chorus) But I don't want to hold you now Cause I won't let you go I'd lie to myself Say I'll get through some how But I'm not that strong So don't take it wrong If I don't want to hold you now Your smile could light my soul Now memories must do Still I can't bear the thought Of someone else holding you Caught between clinging to my heart And a love worth letting go So don't mistake my silence For a man not pulled apart Cause my heart is screaming no Chorus (bridge) And I know your flame’ll burn brighter When it’s free to breathe But it’s taking all my strength Just to let you let you leave © 2019, David Litwin
