Water the plant in the corner
but not too much
It needs the light, it needs
the water and your touch

Take care of me, stay close
to me, please keep me here
I need your love, I need
your heart, but I don't need you

Chorus:
Holding on to you, holding on to you... (I hold on to you)
Stay around me ‘cos
I want to be with you
but not the way you do
We were like others, but
it's not what we should do
and now your holding on to this
and I'm too weak to leave

Cut the leaves, plant new
seeds but it still won't grow
It needs your hands, it needs
a chance, it needs your all
Take care of me, sleep beside
me, please keep me here
I need your love, I need
your touch, I need too much

Chorus
