|
Hold me tight, don't say goodnight |
|
And I'll let you know that I care |
|
Wait a little longer, don't let me be |
|
And I'll comfort you from the storm |
|
It's been a long night, tomorrow's another day |
|
Call me when you find out the answer |
|
And I'll hope and I'll pray |
|
To a power that will keep me from goin' insane |
|
In the meantime, baby |
|
Teenage lovers caught up in this dance |
|
Pain's the price of this young romance |
|
How was I such a young fool to know |
|
Lord knows I got no direction from home, baby |
|
So I say this prayer |
|
"Take hold of me, blessed powers that be |
|
Love keep us together" |
|
"Take hold of me, blessed powers that be |
|
Love keep us together" |
|
Down with the rain came the news |
|
That our wild ways gonna bring us a baby boy |
|
I wash away all those innocent dream |
|
Now my whole world turned upside down on me |
|
And here I pray to some power, they say |
|
Is gonna keep me from goin' insane |
|
I don't think so, child |
|
I can't be strong unless I'm by your side |
|
My weakness tells me to run for the hills |
|
Responsibility beckons me |
|
To think I dreamed that your kiss would set me free, baby |
|
Well, I've never been so wrong |
|
"Take hold of me, blessed powers that be |
|
Love keep us together" |
|
"Take hold of me, blessed powers that be |
|
Love keep us together" |
|
There cries a child so deep in the night |
|
He needs a father, somebody to set things right |
|
I am the one to love to hold him tight |
|
To discount my love, a serious oversight |
|
Higher power has brought us together, I know |
|
She will keep us together wherever we go |
|
Even if I live a thousand miles away |
|
My love is pure and strong and here |
|
Sing together for ever |
|
And a day together |
|
I know one day, we will be together |
|
Me and you drive out |
|
[Incomprehensible] and you see, yeah |
