Reach inside and hold you close
I won't leave you on your own
Teach me the words I used to know
Yeah I forgot them long ago
So hold the girl
Hold the girl (×2)
Hold the girl (Hold the girl)

Sometimes I get down with guilt
For the promises I've broken to my younger self
Moving on, maybe I'll never will
'Cos I left you spinning on the carousel

Been living without you (×2)

Reach inside and hold you close
I won't leave you on your own
Teach me the words I used to know
Yea I forgot them long ago
Oh I wanna remember
She is me and I am her
So hold the girl
So hold the girl (Hold that girl)

Sometimes I just want to run away
Leave behind that old me, start again
Than I remember who I'm really made of
And she's been hide and seeking,
waiting all along

Been living without you (×2)

Reach inside and hold you close
I won't leave you on your own
Teach me the words I used to know
Yeah I forgot them long ago
Oh I wanna remember
She is me and I am her
So hold the girl
Hold the girl

Close to your heart
Never ever let her go (never let you go)
They'll tell you to sit up and shut up and grow up
What the hell do they know？
But the girl in your soul's seen it all
And you owe her the world
So hold the girl
Hold the girl

Reach inside and hold you close
I won't leave you on your own
Teach me the words I used to know
Yeah I forgot them long ago
I wanna remember
She is me and I am her
So hold the girl
Hold the girl
