Laurence Fox - Holding Pattern

I didn't think you'd come back
You were gone for hours
I blew out all the candles
I threw away the flowers

And now I just hold your gaze
Tears to the fore
Where before was rage

You put a hand on my shoulder
White knuckles grasping
I turn my face to touch you
Last time I'm asking, hold my gaze
Face creeping slowly to that smile you make

It's not the truth, you know
The love is a fairytale
Why now run away
After you diatribe

Come sit back down
Come take my hand
I'll shut my mouth
I need your song

Come sit back down
Come take my hand
I'll shut my mouth
I need your song

Always knew you'd go there
Before you even went there
You are a broken record
The end, the end, the end
Hold my gaze, cold to the core
Now no love remains

It's not the truth, you know
The love is a fairytale
So why now run away
After you diatribe

Come sit back down
Come take my hand
I'll shut my mouth
I need your song

Come sit back down
Come take my hand
I'll shut my mouth
I need you

We are not moving mountains
We are a holding pattern
Only raising diamonds
Riding out a storm we may never know

Sit back down
Take my hand
I need you so
I need you so
I need you so
I need you so

I need your song
To hear your song
I need your song
I need your song
I need your song

I didn't think you'd come back
You were gone for hours
