Lyrics
Someone to Hold
I know we only just met
I feel I’ve known you all my life
Yet there’s things that I need to say
But the words are getting in the way
So another drink to lose my pride
Then the man in me will stop to hide
Then the man in me will stop to hide
You say I look sad and blue
Yeah I guess it’s probably true
If there’s other things you’ve heard
Don’t care if they’re true or lying words
It don’t matter to me any more
Why don’t you come in and close the door
Why don’t you come on in and close the door
Because tonight I feel so all alone
I’m so far away from home
And I’m sorry if I’m being bold
But tonight I just need someone to hold
In the street there’s a thousand women I could buy
A thousand things I could take to help fly
To help distance me from all of the pain
That’s eating my heart driving me insane
But I’m just not asking for this or that
Coz I know that’s not really where it’s at
I’m just asking you to stay through the night
With me till the morning light
And I’m sorry if I might sound bold
But I really do need someone to hold
I feel like a robot going through the motions
Programmed not to show too much emotion
But for how long can I go on like this
When it’s the human touch I need and miss
For my heart’s broken please help make it whole
Help me to pick up the pieces of my soul
You can leave but if you decide to stay
There won’t be a price to pay
I realize that I might sound bold
But I’m dying to have someone to hold
Though you might help me to ease some of my sorrow
You may not see me after tomorrow
But I’ll remember you with affection
Even though we’ll go in different directions
In the end all I took was your time
I hope we’ll meet again somewhere down the line
I know we only just met
I feel I known you all my life
Yet these things I needed to say
But some words got lost along the way
So another drink to lose our pride
Then the man in me will stop to hide
For I’m sorry if I’m being bold
But tonight I just need someone to hold
