You Hold Me Together

By now I should have been broken,
On the rocks that rise from life's ocean,
Just another ship lost at sea,
By now I should have been scattered,
In the wind of my lonesome travels,
Like a thousand dandelion seeds,
And I should have come unraveled,
At the seams like a well worn sweater,
But you hold me together.

My hopes should have been shattered,
Like a bottle out behind some tavern,
From a fight that you had no chaance to win,
My dreams should have been ashes,
Gone up in smoke like a book of matches,
Tossed away never gonna burn again,
And I should have worn right through,
Like old cowboy's biit leather,
But you hold me together.

I feel your love surrounding me,
Strong enough that I can believe,
There won't ever be a storm that I can't weather,
Because you hold me together.

Together,
Yeah,
Yeah,

I feel your love surrounding me,
Strong enough that I can believe,
There won't ever be a storm that I can't weather,
No there will never be a storm that I can't weather.

I should have been long forgotten,
Just a footnote at the bottom,
Of a page in a book of what could've beens,
My heart should lie in pieces,
On the ground like a goodbye letter,
But you hold me together,
You hold me together,
Yeah,
Yeah,
You hold me together,
Together,
Yeah,
Yeah,
Oh,
You hold me,
You hold me together.

    Good Song lyrics

    flowed well and i could imagine the vocals of the woman singing this song. Quite a powerful emotional piece! I really liked the subject content, imagery, and all together the poem itself! Great write. The title walks great in to the first line of the poem, and is also the last line of the poem. Everything seems to be running on a tempo, and doesn't need much editing. Great job@
