Holding on to nothing

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I see his face
I want to hold you but it feels unsafe
Too scared to give me heart up now
I´m not brave enough to play my part now
[Bridge 1]
Can you guarantee that you´ll stay
Here with me, with me
[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge 2]
It´s not fair, not your fault
Not at all, not at all
[Hook]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Bridge]
[Hook]
[Bridge 3]
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
[Hook]
Sometimes I see his face
I want to hold you but it feels unsafe
Too scared to give me heart up now
I´m not brave enough to play my part now
[Bridge 1]
Can you guarantee that you´ll stay
Here with me, with me
[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge 2]
It´s not fair, not your fault
Not at all, not at all
[Hook]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Bridge]
[Hook]
[Bridge 3]
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
[Hook]
