Here I've loved you for so many years I still want to hold you Tho' I've seen all your weaknesses and fears I still want to hold you In those awkward phases, that we tend to go thru I still want to hold you When I seem very distant and there's no talking to me I still want to hold you You, you love me for myself You see things as they are And with you there's nothing to trying No deception or lying I've come to rely on you So we're getting older and we've looked much better I still want to hold you Well we'll only see what we care to remember I still want to hold you When we're sitting in the twilight, taking things slower I'll still want to hold you 'Til my last breath, when the lights begin to lower I'll still want to hold you You, you love me for myself You see things as they are And with you there's nothing to trying No deception or lying I've come to rely on you You, you love me for myself You see things as they are And with you there's nothing to trying No deception or lying I've come to rely on you
