Lyrics The Lemon Twigs

The Lemon Twigs

No One Holds You (Closer Than the One You Haven't Met)

Don't wanna be there for you

When you're alone

And need a loving touch

For that would be too much

We saw each other for a moment

But then it was clear

That these eyes, they weren't mine

They fail me all the time

I'm gonna leave you alone

Despite the light that might've shone

Take care

No one holds you closer than the one you haven't met

No one compares to the one that you invented in your head

I've heard the grass gets greener

The further you go from the tomb

You call your home

But you gotta go alone

The howling wind talked to me

As I rode away

With the night so close behind

With my dream girl on my mind

I'm gonna have her to hold

Far from the torture days of old

I swear

No one holds you closer than the one you haven't met

No one compares to the one that you invented in your head

I don't even know what I would say to you

If I could see your face

I'm gonna leave you alone

Despite the light that might've shone

Take care

No one holds you closer than the one you haven't met

No one compares to the one that you invented in your head

No one holds you closer than the one you haven't met

No one compares to the one that you invented in your head

I don't even know what I would say to you

If I could see your face
