Hold Me

HOLD ME

I can make you, Tomato
With my underworld eye
Give you forefinger pogo
Tell a little lie

You can smile like a billboard
Or breathe fire when you pout
It helps to shine the pointy teeth
In your big mouth

I can buy you libido
Tossing rings in my hat
I can kill the demon seed
With my laundromat

You can ride the silence
With your libertine scowl
Screaming independence
Throwing in the towel

Baby say you'll stay
Don't ever run away
Just hold me
Baby say you will
Be mine until
The end of days

Forty versions I can choose
Never be myself
You can cue a Greek chorus
With the satellites' help
You can hide on islands
Never be yourself

Baby say you'll stay
Don't ever run away
Just hold me
Baby say you will
Be mine until
The end of days
Never go away
Don't ever stray
Just stay and hold me
Never be afraid
My arms were made
For your embrace
