[Verse 1]
I can't take back, the things I said
To you in the past
Or make you forget, the reasons why
We didn't last
[Pre- Chorus]
I'm haunted by what might have been
Still I can't change who I was back then
[Chorus]
But if I could hold you now
You'd see I've turned myself around
And now I'm someone you'd be proud to love
I'd do all the right things
Make promises that I'd keep
It'd hurt too much to let you down
And in my arms there'd be no room for doubt
If I could hold you now
[Verse 2]
It's funny how, this empty room
Makes it all too clear
When I let you leave, a part of me
Just disappeared
[Pre-Chorus]
But if I'd known then what I've come to know
There's no way I could have let you go
[Chorus]
But if I could hold you now
You'd see I've turned myself around
And now I'm someone you'd be proud to love
I'd do all the right things
Make promises that I'd keep
It'd hurt too much to let you down
And in my arms there'd be no room for doubt
If I could hold you now
[Pre-Chorus]
But if I'd known then what I've come to know
There's no way I could have let you go
[Chorus]
But if I could hold you now
You'd see I've turned myself around
And now I'm someone you'd be proud to love
I'd do all the right things
Make promises that I'd keep
It'd hurt too much to let you down
And in my arms there'd be no room for doubt
If I could hold you now
[Outro]
If I could hold you now
If I could hold you now
If I could hold you now
Oh, I just wanna hold you
