Hold Me
Angels & Agony Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hold me
So I can feel
The warmth of your body
Close to me

Hold me
So I can smell
The scent of life once more

Feel this cold body
See the decaying of my flesh
Please hold me for a while
And make this moment last
Before I'll travel to a distant world
Where we all belong

Kiss me
So I remember
For all eternity
And after

Touch me
So I can sense




A loving touch
Before goodbye
