Hold Me - George Benson

When the picture tells it all

There’s no need for trying or pretending

You whip your suitcase in the hall

It’s not a time for lying, no more crying

I gave up what I may never see.

return to me

Hold me, like you used to do before

Let me wrap my arms around you baby

You told me that you’d never leave no more

So I wrap my life around you

Before the pleasure turns to shame

It’s a time for leaving not deceiving

And, though a promise has been made

I would never hold you from what you need to do

You keep the years but the moments I’ll keep near forever dear

Hold me, like you used to do before

Let me wrap my arms around you baby

You told me that you’d never leave no more

So I wrap my life around you

.I gave her heart that I may never see return to me.

Hold me, like you used to do before

Let me wrap my arms around you baby

You told me that you’d never leave no more

So I wrap my life around you

The passage of years

My song you might hear

In some caught-up and lonely café

And wonder could it ever be.

That good again?

Guess we’ll never know (We'll never know)

Hold me, like you used to do before

Let me wrap my arms around you baby

You told me that you’d never leave no more

So I wrap my life around you
