Hold Me


 

Hold me

I don’t want to be alone tonight

Ive lost my sense of me

Im not alright

Hold me

If you’ve ever meant a word

Im not scared in your arms

Anymore

 

Across the distant world

They think that they know of love

They don’t know a thing

Its not destiny

I’m not meant to be your one

 

I love you

More than you will ever know

So ill give you back your hand

Ill let you go

 

And it will hurt for a time

Probably the rest of my life

But the pain won’t mean a thing

Not if I have to see

Your spirit die
 

Hold me

Just for one more night

Forget about tomorrow

Squeeze me tight

Hold me

So I can say goodbye

Ill tell you the lie

I will be fine
