Hold Her

|
You gotta hold her now
|
Never leave her
|
Never let her go
|
|
You think you lost her number but you've only lost a little bit of time
|
She's waiting just to see you boy, a continental girl so fine
|
Mirrors on the ceiling make it hard for you to sleep at night
|
The opportunity is now
|
You know you got to do what's right
|
|
Bridge:
|
So, you take yourself down to her
|
Before it gets too late
|
There's no need to telephone
|
Cause this can hardly wait
|
The meaning of a moment has never been so strong
|
A girl like this, a night like this
|
It's right where you belong
|
|
Chorus:
|
You gotta hold her now
|
Never leave her
|
Tell her how
|
You're gonna love her, squeeze her
|
Hold her now
|
Never leave her again
|
Never leave her again
|
(don't you go)
|
|
She found you in a restaurant when you were with another girl
|
Remember?
|
You tried to tell her how it was just to live in a harmless world
|
Remember how she looked at you
|
Remember how she stole your eyes
|
And now you're all alone at night
|
Runnin?out of alibis
|
|
Bridge
|
|
Chorus
|
|
You've got to take your time
|
Take your time
|
Take your time whenever you see her
|
Save her every moment you can
|
|
With your every wonderful feeling
|
Let her know that you will be her man
|
Open arms are never too open
|
Lovin?hearts are never too free
|
|
Let the circle never be broken
|
Let it be what you want it to be
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Hold her now
|
Hold her now
|
Never let her go
|
|
