Heavy Handed

James Bay

Intro: verse 1 It's only getting harder Talking to you without falling down And this house keeps getting darker We used to love, now all we do is shout Pre-hook 1 If we're cutting any corners There's still a chance to make it right So let's put our heads together Before we lose our mind Hook Have I been holding on too strong? Maybe I'm coming off all wrong Is it our heavy handed love Keeping us from moving on? Instrumental verse 2 Feels like I'm treading the water Trying to keep my head above the line I hear the sound of you get softer Lately you've been just so hard to find Pre-hook 2 And there's nothing I want more now Than to say the perfect words I try to make it better But the trying only hurts Hook Have I been holding on too strong? Maybe I came across all wrong Is it our heavy handed love Keeping us from moving on? Bridge (Uhhh Ohh ohh yeahh) I'm not ready to go tonight I'm not ready to go tonight (No, I'm not ready) I'm not ready to go tonight (To go) Hook Have I been holding on too strong? Maybe I came across all wrong Is it our heavy handed love Keeping us from moving on? Outro
