Holding You Back

[Verse 1]
I could never be the one to tell you
That it's not enough
Every time I try to tell you something
You shut me up
So I wrote it in a letter to you, honey

[Chorus]
To someone I loved, the note has gone flat
The scale is tipping when I'm holding you back
We tried and it's true, the night has gone black
The daylight is blinding and I'm holding you back

[Verse 2]
When you think about me when I'm gone
Don't be blue
I couldn't stay when I knew that it was wrong
And you knew it too
So I wrote it in a letter to you, honey
Letter to you, honey

[Bridge/Pre-Chorus]
But don't be blue
I'm holding you back

[Chorus]
To someone I loved, the note has gone flat
The scale is tipping when I'm holding you back
We tried and it's true, the night has gone black
The daylight is blinding and I'm holding you back

[Outro (overlapping with Chorus, x3)]
I could never be the sun you see
When you look at me, blind and happy

Blind and happy (x3)
