Ed Harcourt - Heavy Handed lyrics

[Verse 1] It's only getting harder Talking to you without falling down And this house keeps getting darker We used to laugh, now all we do is shout If we're cutting any corners There's still a chance to make it right So let's put our heads together Before we lose our mind [Chorus] Have I been holding on too strong? Maybe I'm coming off all wrong Is it our heavy handed love Keeping us from moving on? [Verse 2] Feels like I'm treading the water Trying to keep my head above the line I hear the sound of you get softer Lately you've been just so hard to find And there's nothing I want more now Than to say the perfect word I try to make it better But the trying only hurts [Chorus] Have I been holding on too strong? Maybe I came across all wrong Is it our heavy handed love Keeping us from moving on? [Bridge] I'm not ready to go tonight I'm not ready to go tonight I'm not ready to go tonight [Chorus] Have I been holding on too strong? Maybe I'm coming off all wrong Is it our heavy handed love Keeping us from moving on?
