It's Better to Hold Me

Verse1
Not because I say… ‘I love you’
Not because I say that …'I care’
Not because I hold you…near
Don’t you ever, ever…think that…

Bridge
That you can take my kindness
For weak -ness
That you can take my love for granted
That you can play me like a circus clown

Chorus
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and keep me near
It’s better to hold and don’t let me go…

Verse2
Baby I know you know, I treat you so fine,
And I’m not guessing, I know I blow your mind
When I’m lovin’ you baby I take my time
But don’t you ever think that… I’m blind

Chorus
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and keep me near
It’s better to hold and don’t let me go…

Verse3
I’m not a love fool, so don’t mess me around
Just hold and kiss me ‘till I fall to the ground
Though sometimes I ignore the warning signs
Oh but sometimes it makes me stop and think

Chorus
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and keep me near
It’s better to hold and don’t let me go…

Bridge
I’ve been burn too many times before
But this time I know I’ll never ignore
The creeping around without making a sound
I know my vulnerability is so transparent

Chorus
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and keep me near
It’s better to hold and don’t let me go…




Bridge
I'm not sure if I’m really making sense
I've got to let you know…that I’ll let you go
If I know that you’re not gonna stay true


Chorus
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and say you care
It’s better to hold me and keep me near
It’s better to hold and don’t let me go…
