I'm in the kitchen, you're on the couch
Both of us just wasting time
You with your paper and me with my tea
Wishing you would read my mind

Take me in your arms and hold me
Oh it's been a long lonely day
Take me in your arms and hold me
And don't let tonight slip away

I spend the morning and afternoon
Hoping this evening you would see
I need attention and I need your touch
Lord, I need you wrapped around me

Take me in your arms and hold me
Oh it's been a long lonely day
Take me in your arms and hold me
And don't let tonight slip away

Baby, don't let tonight slip away
