You are the one, the one and only one for me
When I hear your laughter, I fear I'll never meet another
When we embrace in dreams, I wake up like I've never been
Why do I fear that if we kiss I will not ever see the sun again

Hold me like you mean it, kiss me like you seen it
I'll give you everything that you won't
Hold me like you mean it, kiss me like you seen it
I'll whisper all the sweet things you don't want to hear

Always so much to say, avoiding direct questions
Look to the eyes that flutter like a moth that flames have smothered
I want to be the place that's safe for a soft landing
I want to feel the fire so far from understanding

Hold me like you mean it, kiss me like you seen it
I'll give you everything that you won't
Hold me like you mean it, kiss me like you seen it
I'll whisper all the sweet things you don't want to hear
Hold me like you mean it, kiss me like you seen it

(single-note guitar solo)

I don't mind the fuss, when you crashed my car I started riding the bus
I cried for just a minute when you told me you seduced my brother
I know your love for me is secret, it will take some time
I know the day will come when you slip your trembling hand in mine

Hold me like you mean it, kiss me like you seen it
I'll give you everything that you won't
Hold me like you mean it, kiss me like you seen it
Hold me like you're kind, hold me like you're mine all mine

Hold me like you mean it, kiss me like you seen it
I won't tell anyone you thaw a bit in the sun
Hold me like you mean it, kiss me like you seen
