Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tell me I'm the only one
And then I might
Never be the lonely one
So hold me tight, to-night, to-night
It's you, you you you, oh, oh, oh, oh
Hold me tight
To-night to-night
Making love to only you
So hold me tight, to-night, to-night
It's you, you you you, oh, oh, oh, oh
Don't know what it means to hold you tight
Being here alone tonight with you
It feels so right now, feels so right now
Hold me tight
Tell me I'm the only one
And then I might
Never be the only one
So hold me tight, to-night, to-night
It's you, you you you, oh, oh, oh, oh
Don't know what it means to hold you tight
Being here alone tonight with you
It feels so right now, feels so right now
Hold me tight
Let me go on loving you

This has to be one of Spector’s best ever recordings.

There's something so hauntingly mesmerizing about Spector's wall of sound. Even though Phil ended up a murderous lunatic. God keep Lana Clarkson well in heavenly peace .Amen.

One of my favorite Beatles "cover" versions...
@martyn3538
Those Hal Blaine drums.......fantastic.
@stillstanding6031
He had no peer. There was Hal Blaine and then there was everybody else. Thank you, Hal. You were always music to my ears :-)
@richieluckenbill1590
Most likely Earl Palmer on this. Hal isn't on record for playing on this session.
@josephroache3176
@@richieluckenbill1590 Hal Blaine or Earl Palmer, I don’t know, but they were both two of the most in-demand session drummers back then.
