Lily Allen - Holding On To Nothing

Sometimes I see his face
I wanna hold you, but it feels unsafe
Too scared to give my heart up now
I'm not brave enough to play my part now

Can you guarantee that you'll stay here with me?
With me

Feels strange like a foreign thing
I'm still waiting for the love to kick in
Sometimes when I watch you sleeping
I keep heading to check you're breathing

It's not fair, not your fault, not at all
Not at all

Oh, once bitten, twice shy
I try and I try, I try
'Cause I'm holding on to nothing
I'm holding on to nothing
Once bitten, twice shy

I can't seem to find the strength
What's the point in keeping you at arm's length?
I wanna love you, but I can't imagine
What I'd do if the worst did happen

Can you guarantee that you'll stay here with me?
With me

Oh, once bitten, twice shy
I try and I try, I try
'Cause I'm holding on to nothing
I'm holding on to nothing
Once bitten, twice shy

Well, I've been there before
No, I won't go back
Couldn't take anymore
I'm not going back
Going back, going back

Oh, once bitten, twice shy
I try and I try, I try
'Cause I'm holding on to nothing
I'm holding on to nothing
Once bitten, twice shy
Once bitten, twice shy
