Hold Me Tight
Troubled times in the firmament
Is this madness heaven-sent?
Three warriors where one would do
What's the whole world coming to?
In the land of the blue-eyed boy
Brown-eyed girl is his pride and joy
Will she wound or heal the scars?
My, how the glow reveals the stars
And the night goes on and on
Hold me tight
I know who you are
Save my life
Don't tear it apart
Day or night
No matter how far
This may go, oh
Over there is the kingdom come
Shining out like a sugar plum
So divine that it seems unreal
Tell the Father how you feel
Dry your tears on a nice clean towel
Take the word of a lovesick gal
It's easier to smile than frown
Stay out there
When the sun goes down
And the night goes on and on
And hold me tight
I know who you are
Save my life
Don't tear it apart
Day or night
No matter how far
This may go, oh...
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
So even though the darkness might
Stay out there in the light
And hold me tight
I know who you are
Save my life
Don't tear it apart
Day or night
No matter how far
(This may go)
Where this may go
Hold me tight
I know who you are
Save my life
Save my life
And day or night
No matter how far
This may go
Where this may go
Hold me tight
(Save my life)
Oh, won't you save my life now, yeah
Day or night
This my go
Hold me tight
(Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Save my life)
Oh, won't you save my life now, boy?
Day or night
No matter how far, yeah
This may go, may go
