Hold Me Now
Thompson Twins · More Music From The Breeze [2013]
I have a picture pinned to my wall
an image of you and of me and we're laughing
with love at it all
But look at our life now, we're tattered and torn
We fuss and we fight and delight in the tears
that we cry until dawn
(chorus)
Ohhh... Hold me now
ohhh...Warm my heart
Stay with me
Let lovin' start, let lovin' start
You say I'm a dreamer, we're two of a kind
Both of us searching for some perfect world we know we'll never find, no...
So perhaps I should leave here, yeah yeah, go far away
But you know that there's nowhere that I'd rather be
than with you here today
(REPEAT CHORUS x 2)
You ask if I love you, well, what can I say?
You know that I do and that this is just one of those games that we play
So I'll sing you a new song, please don't cry any more
I'll ask your forgiveness though
I don't know just what I'm asking you for
(chorus2)
Oh, oh, hold me now (hold me in your lovin' arms)
Oh warm my heart (warm my cold and tired heart)
Stay with me (Ooh stay with me)
Let lovin' start, let lovin' start
(REPEAT CHORUS2 x 4)
an image of you and of me and we're laughing
with love at it all
But look at our life now, we're tattered and torn
We fuss and we fight and delight in the tears
that we cry until dawn
(chorus)
Ohhh... Hold me now
ohhh...Warm my heart
Stay with me
Let lovin' start, let lovin' start
You say I'm a dreamer, we're two of a kind
Both of us searching for some perfect world we know we'll never find, no...
So perhaps I should leave here, yeah yeah, go far away
But you know that there's nowhere that I'd rather be

I'll ask your forgiveness though
I don't know just what I'm asking you for
(chorus2)
Oh, oh, hold me now (hold me in your lovin' arms)
Oh warm my heart (warm my cold and tired heart)
Stay with me (Ooh stay with me)
Let lovin' start, let lovin' start
