holding me tonight

you say you're not worthy of me

but how do you know when you can't see

your eyes where midnight catches fire

i can't describe this dizzy desire

can you be so insecure

that you don't know what this grin is for

do you think i always act this way

silly and silent

and eager to stay

when you're holding me tonight

holding me tonight

you think it's all a mistake

that i'm lost in a dream from which i'll wake up

there you'll be just another guy

you could never be but i dare you to try

when you're holding me

holding me tonight

i walk into your room

you blush when i see it in a mess

so i undress and close my eyes

a room with a view

is in the dark with you

but that should come as no surprise

it's not a matter of mind

the choice of the heart is a different kind

it's always been a mystery

when you walk into the room it happens to me

and when you're holding me

holding me tonight
