"Can't Hold You" lyrics

It's a freezing night, the streets are dead
There's smoke coming from your breath
Our hands are numb but only I feel something
You drop your gaze and start to say
Sometimes people in love can change
Before you lie to ease the pain, I tell you one thing

God knows that I adore you
There's nothing more I can give
If I'm not the one for you
Then darlin' maybe he is

'Cause I can't hold you
The way I'd hoped to
When your heart still beats for someone else's love
Just say you're leaving
And stop the bleeding
'Cause we both know that I'll never be enough
When your heart still beats for someone else's love

Is this how it's always been
Did I ever measure up to him
'Cause honestly, it's got me asking questions

Was I just someone to hold
'Cause you didn't want to be alone
And sometimes I wish I didn't

'Cause I can't hold you
The way I'd hoped to
When your heart still beats for someone else's love
Just say you're leaving
And stop the bleeding
'Cause we both know that I'll never be enough

Oh, I thought you had let him go
And that's why your blood ran cold
I thought you had let him go
But that's not why our love ran cold

'Cause I can't hold you
The way I'd hoped to
When your heart still beats for someone else's love
Just say you're leaving
And stop the bleeding
'Cause we both know that I'll never be enough
When your heart still beats for someone else's love
Your heart still beats for someone else's love
