Hold Me So Tight
Sally Shapiro Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It was another grey ordinary day
I met you in the store you were in my way
We talked about the rain falling on the streets
We ended up as friends meeting twice a week

Baby, you know I care for you
Don't pretend you have no clue
I may be wrong or I may be true
But I think you like me too

Hold me so tight
In the night
I see our lantern shining bright
I know you'll be mine
In no time
In the moonshine

Deep in my soul
I know
That we were never meant to go
Walking alone
So be mine
In the sunshine

And I gave you a kiss when we went to dance
I felt it in the air it was a romance
I looked into your eyes you gave me a smile
And nothing else existed for a while

Hold me so tight
In the night
I see our lantern shining bright
I now you'll be mine
In no time
In the moonshine

Deep in my soul
I know
That we were never meant to go
Walking alone
So be mine
In the sunshine

Overall Meaning

In the song "Hold Me So Tight," Sally Shapiro describes a chance encounter with someone that blossoms into a romance. The song starts with the two meeting casually in a store, where they discuss the rain before becoming friends that meet up two times a week. The lyrics show the singer's uncertainty about whether the person she likes also feels the same way she does - "Don't pretend you have no clue. I may be wrong or I may be true. But I think you like me too." Despite her doubts, there seems to be a deeper connection between them - one that leads to a kiss on the dance floor, and the realization that they were "never meant to go walking alone." This revelation forges the conclusion that the two will end up together in the end, basking in the moonshine and sunshine alike.


The lyrics to "Hold Me So Tight" touch on the more straightforward emotions of romance - the initial uncertainty, the first blush of attraction, and the rush to do anything to express it before it's too late. The song captures the universal feeling of yearning for companionship and finding it in unexpected places. For the singer, initially starting as a harmless conversation in a store, it ultimately leads to a fulfilling relationship.

Does anyone know if she has plans for a tour?  Can't find anything online about her...love this song!

She's very shy, so she decided not to perform live anymore.
I guess that's part of what makes her so special !

Saturn Dyanmo

Marynie2011 she and her partner disbanded a few years ago, but yea they isn't perform live hardly at all. Nobody even knows her name and she didn't grant interviews!
