Why did God make me need to be held
I wish I could be just fine on my own
Everything I feel is way too felt
Cutting deeper than what's underneath my bone
And everybody says I'll be alright
But I don't wanna spend
The rest of my life
Lonely
So, hold me close
If only someone had told me
That this was the cost
Of letting you go
No, it's not about the sex this time
I don't even think I miss that anymore
But I want a body close to mine
'Cause the skin is knit so tightly to the soul
No, I know, I know, I know
That everybody says I'll be alright
But I don't wanna spend
The rest of my life
Lonely
So, hold me close
If only someone had told me
That this was the cost
Of letting you go
I want somebody
To want somebody like me
I need somebody
To need somebody like me
I want somebody
I need somebody
To love somebody
Somebody
Somebody like me
And everybody says I'll be alright, uh
But they've all got a hand to hold tonight
And everybody says I'll be alright
I don't wanna spend the rest of my life
Lonely
So, hold me close
If only someone had told me
That this was the cost
Of letting you go
