lyrics

New years eve you texted me
Wondering if I could stay the night
Did I read that right?
I didn't know that we were close
Until I drove you home past midnight
Through the city lights
In the back was your baggage all emotional
You dumped it on me
I though it was like a self control
And now our song is on the radio
And I can let it go

I've been trying to hold onto you
Been trying to hold onto you
Took a couple years
But now I see through the tears and I realise
I was trying to hold onto you

I drop you off at your front door
That's when you tell me that you might be sick
Reluctantly I come inside
I'll make sure that you're alright
I'm so sick of late night drinking
Overthinking everything you love to do
Yet somehow I love you
You never understood this
But you put me through shit
Right from the start
The truth is I was looking after everyone else
I should've been taking care of myself
And now I've turned this into something else
It's like you're someone else

I've been trying to hold onto you
Been trying to hold onto you
Took a couple nights but after all of the fights
Now I realise
I was trying to hold onto you

I wish, wish I that I could told ya
I hope that I really known ya
I wish, wish I that I could told ya
I hope that I really known ya
I wish I
I wish that I could hold you one more time

about

AlleyJaxx Wellington, New Zealand

The AlleyJaxx project sparked with the idea to make the music I'd love to hear the most from others. That was in 2016, and I have stayed faithful to this ambition, refining myself with each song released. If other people resonate with the results, that is a bonus. Thanks for following along. ... more
