Lost Myself In Search Of You Lyrics - Please - Matt Nathanson

I was holding you so tight and you were holding me 

So wrapped up in the moment I was feeling such security 

And the first few weeks felt just like heaven, 

but I never really seemed to get that high 

So now I sit here laughing at the time that past me by. 

It s times like these, when I feel I'm on my knees begging 

please don't go. 

And as you slipped away I couldn't admit that we were 

through 

As you slipped away 

I found I lost myself in search of you 

I was holding you so tight and you were holding him 

But you left the door so wide open that I was sure you'd come 

back in 

And now the only time I can hold you is in my mind 

And that doesn't seem to fill me up inside 

So yes I felt lonely and yes I felt a need 

And you seemed to feel it necessary to make me see 

That I was wrong and you were right 

And that all my attempts were in vain 

But I was pretty sure you'd turn around and want me back 

again 

And as you slipped away I couldn't admit that we were 

through 

As you slipped away I found I lost myself in you 

I was holding you so tightly when you needed help 

I guess insecurities catch up to you when You're lying to 

yourself 

But I wasn't lying when I told you all that you could be 

But it was no use, you never really ever listened to me 

I was holding you so tight but now I've let you go.
