Hold Me Closely

Hold Me Closely
beyond appreciation
you showed me who to be
there’s no communication
for what you mean to me

the world is such a big place
and I am only small
when I put on my brave face
won’t bother me at all

and I can see a side of me that almost never shows
only as long as you know
Hold me closely
don’t let me go

there isn’t any other
without you there’s no light
a baby needs it’s mother
like I need you tonight

the world is such a big place
and we are only two
you take me to the safe place
that’s deep inside of you

and I can see a side of me that almost never shows
only as long as you know
Hold me closely
don’t let me go

and when I think about
a world without
the love that’s all around me
I drop the phone
I’m coming home
and only you will know

-chorus-
don’t ever let me go
