lyrics
HOLD ME, HOLD ME
Once I had to cross the ocean
Once I had to leave my town
I was strong and I was lonesome
I came pretty far around.
Airport halls and cold attractions
Disconcerted melodies
Women waiting for their husbands
Advertisement tragic scenes.
Anytime you think, you’re playing
Anytime you think, you’re out
People don’t believe your saying
People don’t believe a word.
Children hiding behind mothers
Not believing what they see
I don’t know, why you brought flowers?
I don’t know, what do you need?
He won’t leave behind his family,
He won’t leave behind his home
Why so helpless and abusive?
Why so false and paralysed?
Second chances and romances
Long goodbyes and evening flights
Why’d you bring yourself in danger?
Why this message on your phone?
Best consumers tied to barrooms
Waitress hopes, she can’t forgive
Let’s collect for lifeless boomers,
For disgraced opinion thieves.
Cable car adjustment experts,
Up and down and back and forth
Sponsored by Agnostic Waters,
By Essential Network Lines.
“Do exactly, what you like!”
She was sure that he had heard
“I can’t make it for you right!”
“You’ll be free just like a bird!”
Yes, he met Pauline in Rome
She came in with hurting feet
It was spring and it was raining
It was time to leave the street.
She as well got dressed in velvet
And a scarf in pink and blue
In the dark with pure obsessions
How their love was wild and true.
“You should be a taxi driver
Since you know the streets by heart”
“I will have to tell you something ...”
“We’ve got time for sure all night.”
It’s alright, if you don’t love me
It’s alright, if you just can’t
Thank you for your certain hours
Thank you for the time we spent.
Someone said, “She’s far away”
Someone said, “Well, now it’s too late”
How, just tell me, could you do?
Why’d you break her heart in two?
Chorus:
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Hold me, hold me, hold me now!
Hold me, hold me, hold me, hold me
Hold me, hold me, hold me down!
