Hold Me Tight
Katy Gray Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Something I said was it something you did nothing more
Up in the night take me out for a ride of the break of dawn
Just what is it Inside; there were sparks every time that we meet again
That's the way that we share all the sweet in the air and there's no pretend

There's a smile on your lips and you rise such a fool I'm all desired
At the touch of your skin there's a softness within sets your heart on fire
So you fall on the sand and you let go my hand but I've fallen too
It's our bodies that touch and are minds are out of reach it's just me and you

Why don't you let me feel your heartbeat and you lead me where you like
Why don't you take me to the stars and Hold Me Tight
Hold Me Tight
Why don't you let me take your heartbeat and lead you through the night
Why don't you take me to the stars and Hold Me Tight
Hold Me Tight

Hold Me Tight
Hold Me Tight
Hold Me Tight
Hold Me Tight

There's a smile on your lips and you rise such a fool I'm all desired
At the touch of your skin there's a softness within sets your heart on fire
So you fall on the sand and you let go my hand but I've fallen too
It's our bodies that touch and are minds are out of reach it's just me and you

Why don't you let me feel your heartbeat and you lead me where you like
Why don't you take me to the stars and Hold Me Tight
Hold Me Tight
Why don't you let me take your heartbeat and lead you through the night
Why don't you take me to the stars and Hold Me Tight
Hold Me
Hold Me

Why don't you let me take your heartbeat and lead you through the night
Why don't you take me to the stars and Hold Me Tight
Hold Me Tight

Hold me
Hold me
Hold me
Hold me
Hold Me Tight

Why don't you let me feel your heartbeat and you lead me where you like
Why don't you take me to the stars and Hold Me Tight
Hold Me Tight
Why don't you let me take your heartbeat and lead you through the night




Why don't you take me to the stars and Hold Me Tight
Hold Me Tight

"Hold me, Hold me 

Why don't you let me take your heart beat? 
And lead you through the night 
Why don't you take me to the stars? 
And hold me tight (Hold me tight) 

Night, night, night 
Falling , falling, falling 
Us, us, us "♥

I just love this song, grew up listening to this kind of music in my teenager's years. 30+ years later it still sounded so fresh!

To Sonny H. I'm discovering music like this on the internet NOW. So the old tunes won't escape from me!

@Starsky5000

I believe this is one of the greatest Italo Disco songs ever. I have this Great Italo Disco song on one of my cds. I bought the cd just for this song alone. $30 well spent.
