Hold Her
Loretta Lynn Lyrics

There's two suitcases hid back in the closet
She has secretly packed two suitcases in the closet, indicating her intention to leave for a longer period of time than just a few days.

Packed for much more than a few days stay
The suitcases are filled with belongings for an extended period of time, suggesting her plans to possibly start a new life elsewhere.

And in her purse there's several thousand dollars
She has been saving a significant amount of money in her purse over the years, preparing for any unexpected or difficult situations that may arise.

Years of saving for one rainy day
The money in her purse represents years of diligent saving, with the intention of using it during times of financial difficulty.

It scares her half to death to think of leaving
The idea of departing and being on her own frightens her greatly, as she has never experienced independence before.

She's never been out on her own before
She has always relied on someone else for support and has never had the opportunity to fully experience independence.

Too many nights she's cried while he was sleepin'
There have been numerous nights when she has shed tears silently while her partner was unaware, suggesting her emotional distress in the relationship.

Oh but she's not sure he loves her any more
She has doubts about her partner's love for her, unsure if his feelings towards her have changed over time.

All he has to do to hold her is to hold her
Her partner can keep her in his life simply by showing physical affection, embracing her and making her feel wanted.

Tell her how he feels down deep inside
Expressing his genuine emotions and thoughts that are deeply rooted within him is all it takes to reassure her and strengthen their bond.

There's no way she would ever leave his side
If he fulfills her emotional needs and demonstrates his love for her, she has no intention of ever leaving his side.

To him she's always been a special angel
In his eyes, she is not only special but also an angelic figure, far more remarkable than he considers himself to be.

And so much more than he thought he deserved
He feels incredibly fortunate to have her in his life, as he believes she is beyond what he believed he was worthy of.

Oh how was she to know all he's been feeling
She could never truly understand or comprehend the depth of his emotions, as he struggled to express them through words.

When he could never put it into words
He has always found it challenging to articulate his feelings through verbal communication.

He was so afraid one day she'd walk out on him
He lived in constant fear that she would one day choose to leave him, abandoning their relationship.

He knows he's just a plain and simple man
He is aware that he is an ordinary and uncomplicated person, not possessing any extraordinary qualities.

He could easily tear down that wall between them
He has the ability to break down the emotional barrier that separates them, allowing for a deeper connection and understanding.

Everything he needs to keep her's in his hands
He possesses everything necessary to maintain their relationship and keep her by his side, it all lies within his control.

Maybe he'll wake up in time
There is a possibility that he will realize the importance of their relationship before it's too late.

To hold me
To embrace and physically hold her, symbolizing his love, protection, and commitment to their relationship.
