Lyrics

I said I'll hold, I said I'll hold
I said I'll hold you in my heart
Till I can hold you in my arms
Like you've never been held before
Well, I'll think of you each day
And then I'll dream the night away
Oh, till you are in my arms once more
The stars up in the sky
You know they know the reason why
I feel so blue 'cause I'm away from you
Yeah, I'll hold you in my heart
Till I can hold you in my arms
Oh, darling, please, wait for me
You know, the stars up in the sky
You know they know the reason why
I feel so blue 'cause I'm away, I'm away from you
Yeah, I'll hold you in my heart
Till I can hold you in my arms
Oh-oh-oh, darling, please, wait for me
The stars up in the sky
You know they know the reason why
I feel so blue 'cause I'm away
I'm away, I'm away, I'm away, I'm away from you
I said, I said I'll hold you in my heart, heart, heart
Till I can hold you in my arms
Oh, darling, please, wait for me
The stars up in the sky
You know they know the reason why
I, I feel so blue 'cause I'm away, I'm away from you
Yeah, I'll hold you in my heart
Till I can hold you in my arms
Oh, oh, oh, darling, girl, please, wait for me
