When She Holds Me Right

I was staring at the ceiling in the dark last night
Every thought in my head was a losing fight
I swore I’d never feel whole again
Till she walked in, and I knew right then

She sat down, touched my hand so light
Said, “You don’t have to fight tonight”

When she holds me right, the hurt don’t stay
Her arms turn the dark into brighter days
Every scar I’ve carried fades out of sight
When she holds me right, when she holds me right

Her smile pulls me out from the heavy rain
Like a backroad sunrise through the windowpane
All the pieces I thought were gone for good
She put ‘em back together like only she could

Every word, every touch feels true
She gave me a heart brand new

When she holds me right, the hurt don’t stay
Her arms turn the dark into brighter days
Every scar I’ve carried fades out of sight
When she holds me right, when she holds me right
Hold me right, hold me right
Oh, she holds me right

I thought love was lost in the rearview mirror
But every beat is stronger when she’s near


When she holds me right, the hurt don’t stay
Her arms turn the dark into brighter days
Every scar I’ve carried fades out of sight


When she holds me right, when she holds me right
