Hold me
Daniel Docherty Lyrics

Hold me
The singer wants physical and emotional comfort

And never let me go please
The singer desires constant and consistent support from whoever they address

You said that I need this
The addressee convinced the singer this closeness is necessary

But I don't know
The artist is uncertain and has doubts about the relationship

Where are you
The artist is physically aware that the addressee is not present at the moment

I can tell by the??
The singer is interrupted or unsure of their original thought process

You're moving me around you
The addressee is manipulating the singer's feelings and emotions

You said I know
The addressee claims to understand the artist's feelings

You tell me to go
The addressee suggests the artist leaves them, potentially indicating uncertainty in the relationship

And hold me
The artist repeats their initial desire for comfort and support

You never let me go please
The singer emphasises their need for constant assistance

You say that you need
The addressee claims to also require the closeness between them

Then tell me you don't
The addressee contradicts their previous statement, causing confusion and uncertainty in the singer

And all I need you
The singer emphasises their dependence on the addressee

And I'm afraid that if I leave you
The singer is terrified of the idea of leaving the addressee

It's the last I'll ever see of you
The artist fears this may be the end of their relationship

And I'll be alone
The artist feels isolated and unhappy without the addressee

I said hold me
The singer reiterates their desire for comfort and support

You say you'll never me
The addressee reassures the singer that they will never leave them

You say that are
The addressee claims to be present and attentive

And oh I wanna hold you
The artist also desires physical closeness with the addressee

I wanna love you like we all do
The artist desires deeper emotional connection with the addressee

And I just wanna show you
The singer desires to demonstrate their love and affection

That I never go
The artist promises to not leave the addressee

You know I'd never go
The singer repeats their vow to not abandon the addressee

Yeah hold me
The singer repeats their original plea for comfort and support

And never let me go please
The singer emphasises their continual requirement for help

And tell me that you need me
The artist wants further reassurance of the addressee's commitment

Tell me you know
The artist wants the addressee to acknowledge their emotional needs

You know how you told me
The singer refers to a previous conversation, wanting the addressee to adhere to what was said previously

How we'd be growing old
The addressee promised a future with the singer, growing old together

Be all that there is
The addressee emphasised the importance of the relationship being their entire life

We made long ago
The artist reminisces about their previous commitments to each other

And I said darling hold me
The artist repeats their initial appeal for physical and emotional comfort

ANd never let me go please
The singer emphasises their need for continual support

You said that I need this
Repetition of previous conversation, where the addressee convinced the artist of their need for each other

But I'd never go
The singer assures the addressee of their commitment

You know?? you
The singer's thoughts are interrupted or unclear

And I can tell by the way you
The singer is attuned to the addressee's actions and behaviours

How you're moving me about you
The addressee's influence on the artist is strong and pervasive

You tell me you don't
The addressee contradicts their commitment or affection towards the artist

You tell me you oh Lord no no no no
The addressee may be rejecting or ending the relationship, causing intense distress for the singer

Oh Lord no no no no no
Repeated emphasis of the addressee's negative response

Oh Lord no no no no no
Further emphasis of the addressee's negative response

Oh Lord no no no no no
Reiteration of the emotional distress caused by the addressee's response

Oh Lord no no no no no
The artist is desperate and upset over the addressee's potential ending of their relationship
