[Voicemail audio]
Ok - I just was wondering what you were doing..
And I wanna...um..I wanted...
To say happy..um..-
[Verse 1]
There's a voicemail that I keep
I listen to just to hear you speak
"Hey son.." turns to silence just like that
You know I love you walking by
Like you saw the phone in your hand and you didn't
Know why
It's crazy how you come and go so fast
[Chorus]
Oh how do I get you back
If I could only seal the cracks you’re slipping through
Wish I didn’t feel so helpless when it comes to helping you
Hold on
So I keep holding on
To every little memory made of you and me
Every little glimpse of who you used to be
I know you’re still in there
Deep down somewhere I swear I still see you
Between the blank stares
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s the first thing that I think about
When I wake up and when I lay down
It’s the last thing I feel crawling through my mind
I’m still trying to understand it
Sitting next to you holding your hand
And hoping you won’t fade away this time
[Chorus]
Just stay a little while
Please stay a little while
If I can only seal the cracks you’re slipping through
Wish I didn’t feel so helpless when it comes to helping you
Hold on
So I keep holding on
To every little memory made of you and me
Every little glimpse of who you used to be
I know you’re still in there
Deep down somewhere I swear I still see you
Between the blank stares
[Bridge]
It’s getting harder and harder
To watch you disappear
Oh if only farther leaving me in tears
[Outro]
Wish I didn’t feel so helpless when it comes to helping you
Hold on
So I keep holding on
Every little memory made of you and me
Every little glimpse of who you used to be
I know you’re still in there
Deep down somewhere I swear I still see you
I still see you
Between the blank stares
Between the blank stares
