Every single time I see you, start to feel this way
Makes me wonder if I'm ever gonna feel this way again
There's a picture hanging in the back of my head
I see it over and over
I wanna hold you, and love you, in my arms and then
I wanna need you, 'cause I need to be with you 'til the end
But then I hear myself reply "You've gotta hold it in
this time, tonight"
If only... I had the guts to feel this way
If only... you'd look at me and want to stay
If only... I'd take you in my arms and say
"I won't go 'cause I need you"
I sit here waitin', wonderin', hopin', that I'll make this right
'Cause all I think about is your hands, your face, and all these lonely
nights
There's a feeling that's screaming in the back of my head
Saying it over and over
I wanna hold you, and love you, in my arms and then
I wanna need you, 'cause I need to be with you 'til the end
Then I hear myself reply "She'll never let you in
this time, tonight"
- REPEAT CHORUS - (and then add this):
Please don't go, 'cause I need you now
I want to hear you say it'll always be this way
and we'll be hand in hand for every night and every day
I want to scream and shout 'cause I'm losing every doubt
and all I care about is you and me and us and now
// // // // 4x
// // // // 2x
"yeah!"....
play a couple of times, then end on D
