Jacob Collier, Rapsody - He Won't Hold You lyrics

He won't hold you like I do, no
He won't bring out the love in you

(He won't hold you)
I've been feeling down and out lately
(Like I do) baby, since you left me
(He won't hold you)
It's been so long since your body held me
(Like I do) won't you come and save me?
(He won't hold you)
I never was misunderstood, baby (Like I do)
Since the day you met me (He won't hold you)
Now I'm lost, I'm on my own, I feel so lonely
(Like I do) won't you resurrect me?

(He won't hold you)
And all across from all around
The people make a people sound
They dance along the avenue
Of what I thought I knew (He won't hold you)
And all across from all around
The people make a people sound (He won't)
They dance along the avenue
Of what I am to you

I won't be alright i won't be alright
I won't be alright
And I won't be alright (Say it again)

Things rearrange
We miss what is not the same
I learned the value of what we had
Taught by pain
Caught the rain, used it to wash my wounds
Learned the other side's grass
Wasn't as green i bloomed, I grew
Took separation to get closer to you
You didn't let go and I held on too
Your arms were my armor karma cut us loose
You learned value, I learned truth
No one holds me down the way you do
But your feelings I let spill
Over and over and over
Just to cover for insecurities I
Couldn't show to Him
I had to face myself, my fears, my fails
Now I know there's nothing I can't do
I dance in the rain knowin' I can swim too
Found liberation, found my freedom
Where it begins is without you
I understand now my only one, without you

(He won't hold you)
And all across from all around
The people make a people sound
They dance along the avenue
Of what I thought I knew (He won't hold you)
And all across from all around
(Across from all around)
The people make a people sound
(The people sound)
They dance along the avenue (The avenue)
Of what I am to you

I won't be alright i won't be alright
I won't be alright (Be alright)
And I won't be alright

Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm hmm, hmm, hmm
