Clutching my pillow wishing I was holding you
Your warm and even breathing the whole night through
Somehow it feels like nothing has happened but I've lost you
Where did you go honey?
Can I bring you back here to me
The telephone crackles, our rhythm breaks
You get frustrated and I get the same
I wanna hold you
I wanna hold you
Some girl treats me nicely
That look in her eyes
I'm flattered I admit
Just before I cry
I wanna hold you
I wanna hold you
Clutching my pillow wishing I knew what I should do
Cause man it's a lonely scene
These feathers aren't helping a thing
Yeah lately it feels like we've both forgotten what lovers do
So if I don't freeze in my sleep
I'm calling you up first thing
Cause life's just too short
I've spent all the time
I set aside for arguing and for crying
So let me hold you
Just let me hold you
My mouth's far too small to express my mind
Words are just vapor no matter their size
I wanna hold you
I wanna hold you
