Hold Me Harmless

There's an agony hangin' over me
You know I'm losin' sleep
And I've run out of excuses
For why I let you leave

You said you needed a little time
But it's been too long
I know you need your independence, girl
But I'm not that strong

Well, there's got to be a way
That we can make amends
This was all we ever wanted
Please don't let it end

Hold me harmless
There's nothin' else I can do
I'll always love you, baby
Show some kindness and hold me harmless

I've been told my love was gentle
Thought I had an easy touch
Until I met you I never knew
You could love someone too much

Thought we'd last forever
I guess it just goes to show
If love is gonna put down roots
It's gotta have room to grow

My only crime of passion
Was that I pushed too hard
And if love's what I'm accused of
Then I'm guilty as charged

Hold me harmless
There's nothin' else I can do
I'll always love you, baby
Show some kindness and hold me harmless

Well, I learned an honest lesson
Guess I never realized
If I overstepped my limit
Then I apologize

Won't you just hold me?
Won't you just hold me?

Hold me harmless
There's nothin' else I can do
I'll always love you, baby
Show some kindness and hold me harmless
