Hold Me Closer

[Intro: Elton John]

(Hold me closer)

(Hold me closer)

(Hold me closer)

(Hold me closer)

[Verse 1: Elton John & Britney Spears, Elton John]

I saw you dancin' out the ocean

Runnin' fast along the sand

A spirit born of earth and water

Fire flyin' from your hands (Oh)

[Chorus: Elton John & Britney Spears, Britney Spears]

Hold me closer, tiny dancer

Count the headlights on the highway

Lay me down in sheets of linen

You had a busy day today, oh

[Post-Chorus: Elton John & Britney Spears]

Hold me closer

Hold me closer (Hold me closer)

Hold me closer

Hold me closer

[Verse 2: Elton John, Britney Spears & Both]

There are caravans we follow

Drunken nights in dark hotels, baby (Yeah)

When chances breathe between the silence

Where sex and love no longer gel, oh

[Chorus: Elton John & Britney Spears, Britney Spears]

Hold me closer, tiny dancer

Count the headlights on the highway (Yeah)

Lay me down in sheets of linen

You had a busy day today

[Post-Chorus: Elton John & Britney Spears]

Hold me closer

Hold me closer (Baby, baby)

Hold me closer

Hold me closer (Oh, yeah)

[Outro: Elton John & Britney Spears]

(Hold me closer)

(Hold me closer) Hold me closer

(Hold me closer) Me closer, me closer

(Hold me closer) Mm, yeah
