Hold me, just hold me help me to know I'm alright.
Touch me not only with your arms but with your voice,
With your heart, with your life.
Deep inside I'm but a child
Yet I have learned I must be strong and need no one.
My strenght has brought me to my knees with emptiness
And a child needs another's touch or it may not live.
Hold me, just hold me help me to know I'm alright.
Touch me not only with your arms but with your voice,
With your heart, with your life.
I'm not asking for a cure.
I'm begging not you to take my pain away.
I'm not looking for a sleeve to dry my tears
All I hope for is the touch that says you care.
Hold me, just hold me help me to know I'm alright.
Touch me not only with your arms but with your voice,
With your heart, with your life.
Just hold me
