My Darling - Ingrid Michaelson

Everyone likes the same stupid things

Everyone sings the same love songs

Everyone’s good at busting their ways

But we just haven’t mastered the fall

And I know that I’ve been broken since the first time

That my mother put my foot in the shoe

For the first time in such a long time, I need you

My darling, you make me strong

You make me all the things I wanna be before you’re gone

My only, my only one

I’ve never known what I have got til it’s barely holding on

Holding on, holding on

Just keep holding on

Every time that I think that I’m moving

Turns around, I’m just spinning in place

By the time that I know what I’m after

I want someone to take it away

And I know that I’ve been broken since the first time

That my father put me down on the floor

For the first time in such a long time, I need more

My darling, you make me strong

You make me all the things I wanna be before you’re gone

My only, my only one

I’ve never known what I have got til it’s barely holding on

Holding on, holding on

We’re barely holding on

Holding on, holding on

Just keep holding on

My heart was in it

Would you never let it go?

If my heart was in it

Would you never let me go?

If your heart was in it

Would you never let her go?

If you heart was in it

If your heart was in it

My darling, you make me strong

I’m everything I wanna be before you’re gone

My only, my only one

I’ve never known what I have got til it’s barely holding on

Holding on, holding on

We’re barely holding on

Holding on, holding on

Just keep holding on
