Lingering Stare

I thought with him my life was set in stone
And now without him I am so alone
What Can I do when it's hurting so much
I want to hear his voice and feel his touch

I found the strength to open up my eyes
And there you were just a real honest guy
And then we started to talk one on one
I felt my blood when it started to run

Last night when you held me tightly
And it made me tremble slightly
But I'd never let you let me go
When you ran your hand through my hair
You lingered longer when you stared
Yeah I'd never let you let me go

You knew he'd hurt me so we took it slow
You made me see it was okay to let go
You told me that now my crying was done
I felt my blood as it started to run

Last night when you held me tightly
And it made me tremble slightly
But I'd never let you let me go
When you ran your hand through my hair
You lingered longer when you stared
Yeah I'd never let you let me go
I start to get chills and my heart grows cold
Your arms wrapped around me, the armth starts to flow
But you know I'd never let you let me
You know I'd never let you let me let you go
