He Can Only Hold Her
Amy Winehouse Lyrics
Whoa, oh
Oh, whoa, oh
He can only hold her for so long
The lights are on, but no one's home
She's so vacant
Her soul is taken
He thinks, What's she running from?
Now, how can he have her heart
So he tries to pacify her
'Cause what's inside her never dies
Even if she's content in his warmth
She is plagued with urgency
Searching kisses
The man she misses
The man that he longs to be
Now, how can he have her heart
When it got stole?
So he tries to pacify her
'Cause what's inside her never dies
So he tries to pacify her
'Cause what's inside her it never dies
So he tries to pacify her
But what's inside her never dies
