Hold Me
The DeFranco Family Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All ya got to do if I'm uptight with you
Is to hold me, hold me
Everything is fine anytime that I'm
In your arms, your arms
The special way I feel
Each kiss goodnight
Makes me forget who's wrong or right
[Chorus:]
Hold me, hold me, oh, hold me tight
Hold me, hold me, oh, hold me tight

Anything you say, you can have things your way
If you hold, hold me
You know what I need everytime
That you stand so near, yeah, yeah, yeah
So when you ask me girl, girl
To turn down the lights
The feelin's just too good to fight

[Chorus:]

I can hardly believe what I'm feelin'
When you give me that look with your eyes
Yeah, you're gettin' so close that
My whole body's achin', my heart is breakin'
Take me and make me yours





[Chorus:]
