Holding back Your lips feel like winter The touch of your hand Feels cold as ice What did I do wrong Please tell me now I can't understand you You keep me holdin' on with your ways When all I wanna do is love you I'm cryin' out for mercy Screaming in the night I'm cryin' out for mercy Screaming in the night Can't you see I want you to be a part of my dreams? But when you doubt on me Don't believe in me When I'm missing the touch of your hand But when I follow in your footsteps I can still see those empty eyes What have I got to say To make you stay I need you to be by my side I'm cryin' out for mercy Screaming in the night I'm cryin' out for mercy What went wrong with our loving? Did someone hand you the knife? I feel this pain getting deeper inside
