Hold Me Till Dawn

[Verse 1] In the quiet of the night i close my eyes Memories of your touch flicker like fireflies Your side of the bed is colder than before And i still turn to you and shadows cross the door Maybe somewhere underneath this same moonlight [Chorus] Youre lying there and thinking of me tonight Hold me till dawn Till the darkness is gone Till the first light finds us And the morning comes on Let the leaves outside whisper Their soft lullaby Just hold me till dawn With your heartbeat next to mine [Verse 2] The moon fills the room but it can t replace The way the whole world changes when i see your face Sometimes in the silence i swear you re near And every little sound becomes the voice i want to hear Maybe distance only measures where we are It can t measure love or tell the heart how far [Chorus] Hold me till dawn Till the darkness is gone Till the first light finds us And the morning comes on Let the leaves outside whisper Their soft lullaby Just hold me till dawn With your heartbeat next to mine [Verse 3] I don't need forever promised all at once Give me one slow morning when the waiting s finally done No dreaming of your footsteps no reaching through the night I ll open up my eyes and you ll be there in morning light [Outro] Hold me till dawn Till the darkness is gone Let the first light find just with your arms around me warm
