Hold Me Close

[Verse 1]
You say the world's just going mad
I say that things are not too bad
But it could be better all the same
You know how you want life to be
I know that I may disagree
But neither of us is to blame

[Chorus]
Just hold me close, don't let me go, I couldn't stand it
You're just what I've been waiting for

[Verse 2]
You seem to never notice me
I dream that one day, you will see
The love meant for both of us to share
You try, you try to be carefree
I smile, I know you're just like me
The search for truth's an awesome dare

[Chorus]
Just hold me close, don't let me go, I couldn't stand it
You're just what I've been waiting for
Just hold me close, don't let me go, not for a minute
You're just what I've been living for

[Bridge]
When winter comes and cold winds blow, I'll keep your secret
And if they ask me, I don't know, I'll keep your secret
In the middle of the darkest night
Yours will be the light that guides me through, there's no one like you

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Just hold me close, don't let me go, I couldn't stand it
You're just what I've been waiting for
Just hold me close, don't let me go, not for a minute
You're just what I've been living for
