VERSE 1:
The night is a deep deep blue
For you, it’s a morning hue
I wonder if this is my truth
Your dawn to my moon
There’s love all around it seems
In languages I can’t speak
Looks painful, it cuts too deep
Through a stone we can’t move
CHORUS:
And I can’t hold me tonight
VERSE 2:
And I’ll try to make-believe
That time is a friend indeed
But she’s just too cruel, it seems
At a table for two
A tether, my lifeline
Through state codes and telephone wires
Is 7 hours too much to ask
If this love’s meant to last
I don’t know
CHORUS:
And I can’t hold me tonight
BRIDGE:
No, I won’t, hold it tonight
If the candles still glow, will they send up a sign
I would give anything for a meaningless fight
Still I stood at the gate till you’re well out of sight
Saw the things that you said, heard the ones that you hide
I wanna know, just wanna know
Are you safe back home from your flight
VERSE 3:
I’m tired, I give up the fight
Goliath can win back the right
To boast, brag and turn off the lights
On a dying song
But the battle’s not mine alone
Because through the settling smoke
You’re sending yourself through the phone
To kiss me goodnight
CHORUS:
And I will hold it tonight
The night is a deep deep blue
For you, it’s a morning hue
I wonder if this is my truth
Your dawn to my moon
There’s love all around it seems
In languages I can’t speak
Looks painful, it cuts too deep
Through a stone we can’t move
CHORUS:
And I can’t hold me tonight
VERSE 2:

And I will hold it tonight
