[Verse 1]
So quickly understood
You would never feel it again
Standing in the dirt
Ghostly figure of an old friend
[Chorus 1]
It's like learning how to love
When there’s a fear of coming to love's end
It's like holding onto love
Mixing what was real and what’s pretend
Don't want to let it get away
[Verse 2]
In the middle of the night
Thoughts are creepin' in my mind
The backdrop of an afternoon
Reoccurs for a second time
[Chorus 2]
It's like holding onto love
When there's a fear of coming to love's end
It's like learning how to love
Mixing what was real and what's pretend
Don’t want to let it get away
