Hold Me Harmless

(album: Love & Gravity - 1997)

There's an agony hanging over me
You know, I'm losing sleep
And I've run out of excuses
For why I let you leave
You said you needed a little time
But it's been too long
I know you need your independence, girl
But I'm not that strong

Well there's got to be a way
That we can make amends
This was all we ever wanted
So please don't let it end

Come on hold me harmless
There's nothing else I can do
I'll always love you baby
Show some kindness
And hold me harmless
Yeah

I've been told my love was gentle
Thought I had an easy touch
Until I met you, I never knew
You could love someone too much

Thought we'd last forever
I guess it just goes to show
If love is gonna put down roots
It's gotta have room to grow

My only crime of passion
Was that I pushed too hard
And if love's what I'm accused of
Then I'm guilty as charged

Come on hold me harmless
There's nothing else I can do
I'll always love you baby
Show some kindness
And hold me harmless
Yeah

Well I learned an honest lesson
Guess I never realized
If I overstepped my limit, baby
Then I apologize

Won't you just hold me
Won't you just hold me

Come on and hold me harmless
Nothing else I can do
I'll always love you baby
Show some kindness
Come on and hold me harmless

Hold me harmless
There's nothing else I can do
I'll always love you baby
Show some kindness
Come on and hold me harmless

Hold me harmless
Hold me harmless...
