It’s #MusicMonday again and I know many of us are in recovery after the holiday weekend. I think that’s why ‘Can You Hold Me’ by NF and Britt Nicole is the perfect way to ease back into the weak. Their dual vocals are absolutely beautiful (like Civil Wars, but with a little less twang), and I love the way the instrumental behind their vocals moves the whole song like a story, as it rises to a crescendo and the song shifts too. That one line “If lonely’s a taste, then it’s all that I’m tasting” stole my breath away. Just beautiful and I fell in love with this song the first time I heard it. It’s a permanent writing playlist fixture now! Hope you enjoy it as much as I do, lovelies!

Favorite Lyrics

It feels like a tear in my heart,
like a part of me missing,
and I just can’t feel it.
I’ve tried, and I’ve tried,
and I’ve tried…

Tears on my face, I can’t take it.
If lonely’s a taste, then it’s all that I’m tasting.
Do you hear my cry?

I cry, oh…
Can you hold me? Can you hold me?
Can you hold me in your arms?

Just wrap me in your arms, in your arms,
I don’t wanna be nowhere else.
Take me from the dark, from the dark,
I ain’t gonna make it myself.
Put your arms around me,
put your arms around me,
let your love surround me,
I am lost, I am lost…

If I ain’t got you here,
If I ain’t got you, I ain’t got nothing at all!
Can you hold me? Can you hold me?
Can you hold me in your arms?
