I thought if I could be with you maybe I'd feel better
But I'm afraid I took advantage of your love

I thought if you'd just hold me tight maybe I'd forget her
But I don't suppose as yet you've held me tight enough
Please hold me tighter I still remember
Put your arms around me hold me close hold me tight and long
Please hold me tighter I still remember and I can't love again until her mem'ry's gone
[ steel ]
Please hold me tighter...
