Hold Me Close
Sam Feldt Ella Henderson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Voices in my head sing
La, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
Voices in my head sing
Hold me innocently
Suddenly you're so damn quiet
Voices in my head still sing

And I think that I drank too much and it's Sunday morning
You lay back like nothing in your head is throbbing
It's too late, so let's stay in bed and talk 'bout nothing
It's like paradise with you

Hold me close
La, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
Let's stay home
La, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
I'll never leave you, I wouldn't believe that I have to go
Hold me close
Hold me close

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Wanna hold you closer
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hold me close
Hold me close

Doorbell in my flat sings
La, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
Wonder who could that be
Now I'm gonna let him take me
Na, na-na, na-na, na-na-na
Right where I should be now

And I think that I drank too much and it's Sunday morning
You lay back like nothing in your head is throbbing
It's too late, so let's stay in bed and talk 'bout nothing
It's like paradise with you

Hold me close
La, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
Let's stay home
La, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
I'll never leave you, I wouldn't believe that I have to go
Hold me close
Hold me close

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Wanna hold you closer
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hold me close
Hold me close

Wanna stay, never leave
Keep your body next to me
Like you're mine for all time
Keep you warm when it's cold outside

Wanna stay, never leave
Keep your body next to me
Like you're mine for all time
Keep you warm when it's cold outside

Hold me close
La, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
Let's stay home
La, la-la, la-la, la-la-la
I'll never leave you, I wouldn't believe that I have to go
Hold me close
Hold me close

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Wanna hold you closer
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hold me close
Hold me close

It's a usual SF style track but a different voice and some catchy chords makes it sound like something really different.
