Lost Myself In Search of Youwritten and performed by Matt Nathansonfrom the album "
Please"I was holding you so tight and you were holding me
So wrapped up in the moment I was feeling such securityand the first few weeks were just like heavenbut I never really seemed to get that highso now I just sit here laughing at the time that passed me by
It's times like these when I feel I'm on my knees beggin
Please don't go!
And as you slipped away
I couldn't admit that we were throughand as you slipped away
I found I lost myself in search of you
I was holding you so tight and you were holding himbut 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 mindbut that doesn't seem to fill me up inside
So yes I felt lonely and yes I felt a needand you seemed to feel it necessary to make me seethat I was wrong and you were right and that all my attemptswere 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
And as you slipped away
I found I lost myself in search of you
I was holding you so tight when you needed help
I guess insecurities catch up to you when your lying to yourself
But I wasn't lying when I told you all that you could bebut it was no use
You never really listened to me
I was holding you so tight but now I've let you go(note: these lyrics were taken from the album sleeve but they tend to stay pretty accurate in Nathanson's case.) #9
