047.hold still

in this little town
cars they don't slow down
the lonely people here
they throw lonely stares
into their lonely hearts

i watch the traffic lights
i drift on christmas nights
i wanna set it straight
i wanna make it right
but girl you're so far away

oh, hold still for a moment and i'll find you
i'm so close, i'm just a small step behind you girl
and i could hold you if you just stood still

i jaywalk through this town
i drop leaves on the ground
but lonely people here
just gaze their eyes on air
and miss the autumn roar
i roam through traffic lights
i fade through christmas nights
i wanna set it straight
i wanna make it right
but man you're so far away

oh, i'll hold still for a moment so you'll find me
you're so close, i can feel you all around me boy
i know you're somewhere out there
i know you're somewhere out there

oh, hold still for a moment and i'll find you
you're so close, i can feel you all around me
and i could hold you if you just stood still
oh, i'll hold still for a moment so you'll find me
i'm so close, i'm just a small step behind you
i know you're somewhere out there
i know you're somewhere out there
i know you're somewhere out there
