about

“Hold Me Like You Wanna me is a nostalgic song that triggers feelings of both regret and lack of regret simultaneously. It's a love song but not necessarily romantically. Given the climate of the world at the moment, I think it holds a deeper meaning as we all long to spend time together again, but we know that there are risks involved in doing so.” 

lyrics

You don't know how you’re supposed to feel,
Is your head rolling around again, and again
But you don’t, no you don’t know what you came for
And you won’t, no you won’t talk about it at all, at all

And you try your best, and you don’t succeed, and you God damn risked it all,
And you don’t know how and you don’t know when

Just hold me like you wanna,
Hold me like you feel like you did,
I’m not gonna be the one to tell you,
You’re acting like a kid,
Hold me like you wanna,
I don’t want you to feel like I did so,
You don’t have to say anything,

Tell me more about yourself
Are you sick of night in hotels
Won’t you take what I don’t spend
I don’t want you to worry

And when you try and speak you think that you sound stupid in front of me
Don’t talk if you don’t want to

And you try your best, and you don’t succeed, and you God damn risked it all,
And you don’t know how and you don’t know when

Just hold me like you wanna
Hold me like you feel like you did
I’m not gonna be the one to tell you
You’re acting like a kid
Hold me like you wanna
I don’t want you to feel like I did so
You don’t have to say anything

And you try your best, and you don’t succeed, and you God damn risked it all,
And you don’t know how and you don’t know when
And you try your best, and you don’t succeed, and you God damn risked it all,
And you don’t know how and you don’t know when

Just hold me like you wanna
Hold me like you feel like you did
I’m not gonna be the one to tell you
You’re acting like a kid
Hold me like you wanna
I don’t want you to feel like I did so
You don’t have to say anything
