Lyrics Holding Absence – Saint Cecilia

The perfect cadence that I wish I could complete
You take me by surprise and sweep me off my feet
I’ve spent a lifetime thinking you and I should meet
You’re in my eye line every time I dream

Here’s the thing… You make my heart sing

Cecilia, I’ve lost your love
I’ve given up, I’ve had enough
Saint Cecilia, I tried my best but in the end nothing ever was enough
I’ve given up

Nowadays, I am nailed to your stave
I used to sleep for days — now I’m wide awake
What is there for you to do
When the thing that you live for is dying beside you?
That’s the thing — You break my heartstrings

Cecilia, I’ve lost your love
I’ve given up, I’ve had enough
Saint Cecilia, I tried my best but in the end nothing ever was enough
I’ve given up

Here’s the thing…
I tried my best but in the end nothing ever was enough
I’ve given up
Saint Cecilia, I tried my best but in the end nothing ever was enough
I’ve given up
