Verse 1:
In the shadows of yesterday, I see your face,
Haunted by the memories, we can't embrace.
You hold on tight to the pain inside,
While I reach for tomorrow, our love's designed.
Chorus:
Oh, can’t you see, I’m fighting for you?
But your heart is stuck, lost in the blue.
I won't give up, but what can I do?
When holding on to past is all that you know.
Verse 2:
Each whisper of doubt, it tears us apart,
I wish you could feel the beat of my heart.
I want to mend what’s been torn apart,
But how can I heal when you can’t restart?
Chorus:
Oh, can’t you see, I’m fighting for you?
But your heart is stuck, lost in the blue.
I won’t give up, but what can I do?
When holding on to past is all that you know.
Bridge:
You're drowning in fear, while I swim in hope,
A love so divine, struggling to cope.
I'm here by your side, through thick and thin,
But the more that I fight, the deeper the sin.
Chorus:
Oh, can’t you see, I’m fighting for you?
But your heart is stuck, lost in the blue.
I won’t give up, but what can I do?
When holding on to past is all that you know.
Outro:
So here we stand, on this fragile line,
Between letting go and the love you won't find.
I won’t end this fight; I’ll hold on tight,
But darling, it’s a battle we can't lose sight.

It's about a lover or loved one who can't let go or move. They dwell on the past and let I securities poison the future. I'm some who doesn't give up but doesn't dwell and I'm stuck unable to help. I don't want to end the relationship but I don't have another solution. Make the song a power ballad.
