If queens stood on poker tables and innocent criminals played in the next room,
I know youd let me write in pencil instead of pen to you.
And I could say
Hold me cuz Im lonely and theres something
about your touch that easies the pain.
Hold me closely cuz theres something
in the way you whisper my name,
and it lets the world change.
If my mind wades in alcohol and my hearts
bathed in tearsIt helps to know these
words are falling on forgiving ears.
That understand when I say
Hold me cuz Im lonely and theres something
about your touch that easies the pain.
Hold me closely cuz theres something
in the way you whisper my name,
and it lets the world change.
And If my life got blindsided-by things
no ones immune to-it helps to know theres
someone around who wants you to crawl back
to them and say
Hold me cuz Im lonely and theres something
about your touch that easies the pain.
Hold me closely cuz theres something in the
way you whisper my name,
and it lets the world change.
If I wrote in pencil you knew I might start erasin,
but you saw something in my life that took shape,
when it could be erased
And you
Hold me when Im lonely and theres something
about your touch that easies the pain.
You hold me closely, and theres something
in the way you whisper my name,
that lets the world change.
See you saw something in my life that took shape,
when it could be erased.
