Hold My Name

You left your scarf on my chair Smells like rain and your hair Cup on the sink, still warm Your name in my hand like a storm I tried to act like I’m fine But your side of the bed still shines Every little thing says stay Even the door won’t close that way So if you feel me slipping Don’t let me fall apart I can be the strong one If you keep my heart Hold my name Don’t let it fade Hold my name When I start to break If love’s a flame Then stay, stay, stay Hold my name Hold my name You know the shape of my hurt How I go quiet when it burns You touch my face, I come back Like a light through the cracks We don’t need perfect words Just your hand when the world gets worse I’ll give you all I’ve got If you give me one more shot So if you feel me slipping Don’t let me fall apart I can be the strong one If you keep my heart Hold my name Don’t let it fade Hold my name When I start to break If love’s a flame Then stay, stay, stay Hold my name Hold my name If the room goes cold And the miles get long Say my name out loud Like a love song I’ll come running back Through the hurt, through the rain I just need your voice To say I’m not the same Hold my name Don’t let it fade Hold my name When I start to break If love’s a flame Then stay, stay, stay Hold my name Hold my name Hold my name (hold my name) Hold my name (don’t let it fade) Taken from the upcoming album "Black Sea Swimmer²
