I’ve been drinking myself into oblivion
The deeper the pain the harder to deaden
Staring into space
Tuning out the bar
Coming up for air
Only to seek a minor distraction
But escaping doesn’t get me very far
Away
From the cords that we entangled
Away
From the smile I used to know
And I would hold you all night
If there was such a thing as second chances
If I had just made different choices
I’d know how to live again
And I would hold you all night
And pray the morning light would never wake you
And time would stop to heal the pain I gave you
Baby, I would hold you all night
I’ve been finding myself in harsh realizations
Hearing the truth in your indignation
There is such a thing
As being too strong
I was unaware
I made myself into an island
Too afraid to let you in too long
You tried
Giving all your heart could offer
I tried
But my efforts were too late
And I would hold you all night
If there was such a thing as second chances
If I had just made different choices
I’d know how to live again
And I would hold you all night
And pray the morning light would never wake you
And time would stop to heal the pain I gave you
Baby, I would hold you all night
If I could take back every word I said
And resurrect us from the dead
I’d thank God beneath my breath
And never let you go
And I would hold you all night
If there was such a thing as second chances
If I had just made different choices
I’d know how to live again
And I would hold you all night
And pray the morning light would never wake you
And time would stop to heal the pain I gave you
Baby, I would hold you all night
Baby, I would hold you all night
Baby, I would hold you all night
