Hold Me Close

[Verse 1]

You say the world's just going mad

I say that things are not too bad

But it could be better all the same

You know how you want life to be

I know that I may disagree

But neither of us is to blame

[Chorus]

Just hold me close, don't let me go, I couldn't stand it

You're just what I've been waiting for

[Verse 2]

You seem to never notice me

I dream that one day, you will see

The love meant for both of us to share

You try, you try to be carefree

I smile, I know you're just like me

The search for truth's an awesome dare

[Chorus]

Just hold me close, don't let me go, I couldn't stand it

You're just what I've been waiting for

Just hold me close, don't let me go, not for a minute

You're just what I've been living for

[Bridge]

When winter comes and cold winds blow, I'll keep your secret

And if they ask me, I don't know, I'll keep your secret

In the middle of the darkest night

Yours will be the light that guides me through, there's no one like you

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Just hold me close, don't let me go, I couldn't stand it

You're just what I've been waiting for

Just hold me close, don't let me go, not for a minute

You're just what I've been living for
