  • My hands, your hands
    Tied up like two ships
    Drifting, weightless
    Waves try to break it
    I'd do anything to save it
    Why is it so hard to say it?

    My heart, your heart
    Sit tight like book ends
    Pages between us
    Written with no end
    So many words we're not sayin'
    Don't wanna wait 'til it's gone
    You make me strong

    I'm sorry if I say, "I need ya"
    But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
    'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
    Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong
    That you make me strong?

    Think of how much
    Love that's been wasted
    People always
    Tryin' to escape it
    Move on to stop their heart breakin'
    But there's nothin' I'm runnin' from
    You make me strong

    I'm sorry if I say, "I need ya"
    But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
    'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
    Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong?

    So, baby, hold on to my heart, oh
    Need you to keep me from fallin' apart
    I'll always hold on
    'Cause you make me strong

    I'm sorry if I say, "I need ya"
    But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
    'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
    Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong?

    I'm sorry if I say, "I need ya"
    But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
    'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
    Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong
    That you make me strong?
    I'm sorry if I say, "I need ya"
    But I don't care, I'm not scared of love
    'Cause when I'm not with you, I'm weaker
    Is that so wrong? Is it so wrong
    That you make me strong? Writer/s: Jamie Scott Baylin, John Henry Ryan, Julian C. Bunetta, Louis William Tomlinson
