Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'll let it rain today
Send her, the weathervane
On my knees, I say
Well, it's easy
The soup has come to life
Music, the music sings while I
Drown in your thighs
I didn't mean
To make you cry
You're beggin' me
Don't wet your eyes
[Chorus]
If our love is dead
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
If our love is dead
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
If I'm off my head
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
If our love is dead
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
[Verse 2]
It's embarrassing
You've buried me
Oh, can't you see
I'm caught?
Honestly
It never seems
To better me
And nothing's gone my way
[Verse 3]
It's been too long
The medicine
So bittersweet
It's killing me
I'm wishin' you would stay
But you're not wrong
[Chorus]
If our love is dead
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
If our love is dead
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
If I'm off my head
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
If our love is dead
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
[Chorus]
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
If our love is dead
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
If I'm off my head
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
If our love is dead
If our love is dead
What are we holdin' on to?
[Outro]
What are we holdin' on to?
What are we holdin' on to?
