Hold It Together Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've got a river in my head
I remember what you said to me
Got me workin' endlessly
Is it December? All this time
I remember what it meant to me
Got me workin' endlessly

[Chorus]
I got a feeling that I wanna slow down with you
Nobody else will ever do
I got a feeling that I wanna be there with you
Nobody else will ever do
Nobody else will ever do (Nobody else will ever do)
Nobody else will ever do (Nobody else will ever do)
Nobody else will ever do

[Verse 2]
Hold it together
God, I wish I knew better
Than to be alone like this
Maybe I'm over it
I'm a little like you
Don't pick up, I slide through
And never be alone like this
I'm so over it
[Chorus]
I got a feeling that I wanna slow down with you
Nobody else will ever do
I got a feeling that I wanna be there with you
Nobody else will ever do
Nobody else will ever do (Nobody else will ever do)
Nobody else will ever do (Nobody else will ever do)
Nobody else will ever do
(Ah)

[Bridge]
What is happening to me inside my head? I don't
Know if I could be a remedy or antidote
Want you to talk to me and see if I'm the only one
Like I'm draining out the water from a water gun
You caught me callin' a shrink, I didn't think you're better than me
But you're singing this song like you're meant to be
I don't wanna bow down, are you following?
Are you following me?

[Chorus]
What is happening to me inside my head? I don't
(I got a feeling that I wanna slow down with you)
Know if I could be a remedy or antidote
Want you to talk to me and see if I'm the only one
(Nobody else will ever do)
Like I'm draining out the water from a water gun
You caught me callin' a shrink, I didn't think you're better than me
(I got a feeling that I wanna be there with you)
But you're singing this song like you're meant to be
I don't wanna bow down, are you following?
Are you following me?
[Outro]
Nobody else will ever do
Nobody else will ever do
(Ah)
