John Wetton - Hold Me Now Lyrics

Here ends another day
My emotions locked away
And my darkness is complete as the midnight sky
You steal my confidence
My smile is my defense
And I turn my face, so you won't see me cry

How can you be so cold, and so out of control?
As you pour salt into my deepest cut of all
My shattered heart, in pieces now
And I'm gazing at the fragments of my life

Hold me now, maybe just pretend
I could be someone that you might have loved before
Hold me now, and let me believe in a kiss that means nothing to you
'Cause it means the world to me

Lord above, you sanctify your love
And the barrier you built, forces you not to care
Break down that door, take my hand if nothing more
So when I'm falling, then I know that someone's there

I wondered a thousand times, if I could love again
But I will overcome, what I can comprehend
The honesty I offer you
Is as naked as your fear of loving me

Hold me now, let it never end
Hold me like you've never done before
Hold me now, we don't have to pretend
Smash the chains and throw them to the floor

Hold me now, and let me believe that a kiss is the way it should be
'Cause it means the world to me
It means the world to me
