Lyrics

Lover

Lover, when you make me come alive

Lover, when you take me I could die

Hold me, hold me tonight

Show time next to no time next to you

Showed me how to love you and I do

Lover, lover that's you

Always losing time

And all too soon you're leaving

That ain't right

So hold me close tonight

So hold me close tonight

Lover

Just hold me close tonight
