Hold Me Close

Slowly

Life’s moving so slowly

And now I find myself lonely

I’ve never been this lonely

I hear your voice softly

It’s telling me too softly

But I can’t work out the words though

I listen to it closely, closely, oh

Hold me close

Don’t let me fall

You’re not here

You’re already gone

Please don’t leave me hanging

On and on and on

Hold me close

Don’t let me fall

You’re not here

You’re already gone

Please don’t leave me hanging

On and on and on

Lately

I’ve seen you in my dreams, babe

But I can’t find you when I’m awake

Just don’t wanna stay awake, oh

So maybe

Thinking of just maybe

You’re waiting for me somewhere

Can you wait a little longer, longer? Oh

Hold me close

Don’t let me fall

You’re not here

You’re already gone

Please don’t leave me hanging

On and on and on

Hold me close

Don’t let me fall

You’re not here

You’re already gone

Please don’t leave me hanging

On and on and on

Kept me warm

You eased my mind

You made me laugh

You made me cry

You saved my life

And held my heart in your hands, oh

Hold me close

Don’t let me fall

You’re not here

You’re already gone

Please don’t leave me hanging

On and on and on

Hold me close

Don’t let me fall

You’re not here

You’re already gone

Please don’t leave me hanging

On and on and on

Please don’t leave me hanging

On and on and on
