Frankie Evans - Clutch Lyrics

I could write a book of songs
To tell you you're the only one
But the distance written in your eyes says
I'll never find your love

Look into my eyes and see
A smile masks my misery
It isn't what you put me through
It's only who I am

When it's out the clutch and out of my hands
Slips through my fingers like falling sand
Swallow the words I've been meaning to say
How I wish you'd like to stay

If you mean to turn away
And forget all we've done these days
Oh, you know it would be alright
If you say you've had enough

Close the door if you should leave
Latched and sealed don't leave a crease
No, don't you dare give me hope
You know it'd only keep me holding

When it's out the clutch and out of my hands
Slips through my fingers like falling sand
Swallow the words I've been meaning to say
How I wish you'd like to stay

Look into my eyes and see
A smile masks my misery
It isn't what you put me through
It's only who I am
