Lyric discussion by zivotjejinde 

interesting he uses the word "with" rather than "to" in "nothing to hold on tight with"... it's like rather than saying there wasn't anything to cling to, he's saying he didn't have the means to hang on.

read that way, "you left me adrift" makes me think of "you" as being the one who's adrift.

---That is a good point. By saying with, he's implying that it might have been his own fault. There may have been something to cling to, but he wasn't able to.
