(Verse)
|
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)
|
Can you guarantee that you'll stay
|
Here with me, with me
|
|
(Verse)
|
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)
|
It's not fair, not your fault
|
Not at all, not at all
|
|
(Chorus)
|
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)
|
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)
|
It's not fair, not your fault
|
Not at all, not at all
|
|
(Chorus)
|
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
|
|
(Bridge)
|
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
|
|
(Chorus)
|
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
|
|

Holding on to Nothing
