Something To Lose ~ Matt Andersen – ft. Amy Helm

Something to lose

Written by Matt Andersen, Amy Helm and Ian Janes

Days they come and go
years go by the same
all we shared was careless words
keep a watch on the clock
for the little hand to stop
striking a match just to watch it burn

I don’t want to lose this love
haven’t we lost enough
a heart only takes so much
before it falls out of touch
i just want to hold you close
i don’t want to let it go
i’m gonna love you like i’ve got something to prove
i’m gonna love you like i’ve got something to lose

I can still remember
the first time i saw you
you were like a star that fell for me
let’s get back to then
make it new again
we’ve got too much right just to turn and leave

I don’t want to lose this love
haven’t we lost enough
a heart only takes so much
before it falls out of touch
i just want to hold you close
i don’t want to let it go
i’m gonna love you like i’ve got something to prove
i’m gonna love you like i’ve got something to lose
