JUST HOLD ME
I'm holding on - I'm not letting go
To the love that I used to know!
We've hurt each other so many times
But I'm glad that you've been part of my life!
Even if I fall in love again,
I'll never forget you, my friend.
I've known you so many years
And there's one that'll always be clear:
You'd always be here when I needed you most
And when my emotions began to break loose, you'd hold me close!
I've known you too long
For you to do me wrong!
Don't deny my love - no, not now
You won't be able to get enough - and tell me how,
You could walk out on me and pretend there was nothing said,
Just hold me close and assure me nothing will ever again go bad!!
