An Ever Jarring Moment by Cameron Avery Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And though I tried to reason
With my bottle and my mind
Only to feel my will sink lower
And to partly pass the time
Thinking of you
And that bear trap it grew heavy
On my will and ever thinned
I felt like half a man with half a breath
And I knew I couldn't win
Weren't it for you
[Chorus]
But I don't know if I can stand by
And hear you tell me it'd be nice to see you
Am I the only one that knows why
And I don't know if I can stand by
And hear you tell me it'd be nice to see you
Am I the only one that knows why
[Verse 2]
But who am I to question
And who am I to ask
It isn't fair I gave you all of it
And told you it would last
It wasn't true
And I pleaded with my morals
And I begged that they'd subside
For you drew from me what I know
That I could only hide from you
[Chorus]
But I don't know if I can stand by
And hear you tell me it'd be nice to see you
Am I the only one that knows why
And I don't know if I can stand by
And hear you tell me it'd be nice to see you
Am I the only one that knows why
[Coda]
But you and I, we're
We're holding on but what for
You and I, well
We've only got love to wait for
You and I, we're
We're holding on but what for
[Outro - x10]
You and I, we're
We're holding on but what for
And though I tried to reason
With my bottle and my mind
Only to feel my will sink lower
And to partly pass the time
Thinking of you
And that bear trap it grew heavy
On my will and ever thinned
I felt like half a man with half a breath
And I knew I couldn't win
Weren't it for you
[Chorus]
But I don't know if I can stand by
And hear you tell me it'd be nice to see you
Am I the only one that knows why
And I don't know if I can stand by
And hear you tell me it'd be nice to see you
Am I the only one that knows why
[Verse 2]
But who am I to question
And who am I to ask
It isn't fair I gave you all of it
And told you it would last
It wasn't true
And I pleaded with my morals
And I begged that they'd subside
For you drew from me what I know
That I could only hide from you
[Chorus]
But I don't know if I can stand by
And hear you tell me it'd be nice to see you
Am I the only one that knows why
And I don't know if I can stand by
And hear you tell me it'd be nice to see you
Am I the only one that knows why
[Coda]
But you and I, we're
We're holding on but what for
You and I, well
We've only got love to wait for
You and I, we're
We're holding on but what for
[Outro - x10]
You and I, we're
We're holding on but what for
