"It's Hard To Hold You Close When The World Keeps Turning." lyrics

"It's Hard To Hold You Close When The World Keeps Turning."

I'll be doing something I've done before
When something I forgot fills my head
Then I forget what I was doing
So I do something else instead
I keep memories like secrets
I never tell, I never forget
It only feels something like regret

It's hard to hold you close when the world
Keeps turning
I'm still learning

Something better left unsaid
Flew from lips, resisted attempts
Bursts like spring, I said too much
Too many things I said
Sent reeling to fall misplaced
Like autumn leaves once golden
Turnt to dust instead

Shadows of reflection
Left to wonder some other
Fragments of disillusion to doubt
What is it all about?

It's hard to hold you close when the world
Keeps turning
I'm still learning
