[Verse 1]
Standing in a crowded room, and I can't see your face
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Put your arms around me, tell me everything's OK
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
In my mind, I'm running 'round a cold and empty space
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Just put your arms around me, tell me everything's OK
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Break my bones, but you won't see me fall, oh
The rising tide will rise against them all, oh

[Chorus]
Darling, hold my hand
Oh, won't you hold my hand?
'Cause I don't wanna walk on my own anymore
Won't you understand?
Cause I don't wanna walk alone
I'm ready for this, there's no denying
I'm ready for this, you stop me falling
I'm ready for this, I need you all in
I'm ready for this, so darling, hold my hand

[Verse 2]
Soul is like a melting pot when you're not next to me
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Tell me that you've got me and you're never gonna leave
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Tryna find a moment where I can find release (Find release)
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Please tell me that you've got me and you're never gonna leave
(Leave, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
[Pre-Chorus]
Break my bones, but you won't see me fall, oh
The rising tide will rise against them all, oh

[Chorus]
Darling, hold my hand (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
Oh, won't you hold my hand? (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
Cause I don't wanna walk on my own anymore
Won't you understand? (Ah-ah)
'Cause I don't wanna walk alone
I'm ready for this, there's no denying
I'm ready for this, you stop me falling
I'm ready for this, I need you all in
I'm ready for this, so darling, hold my hand

[Bridge]
Don't wanna know
That feeling when I'm all alone
So please don't make me wait, cause I don't wanna break
No, I don't wanna fall
When you're next to me
Can tell I'm not afraid to be
That you don't make me wait, and never let me break
You never let me fall

[Chorus]
Darling, hold my hand (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
Oh, won't you hold my hand? (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
Cause I don't wanna walk on my own anymore
Won't you understand? (Ah-ah)
'Cause I don't wanna walk alone
I'm ready for this, there's no denying
I'm ready for this, you stop me falling
I'm ready for this, I need you all in
I'm ready for this, so darling, hold my hand
