Hold me tight don't say goodnight
And I'll let you know that I care
Stay a little longer
Don't let me be
And I'll comfort you from the storm
It's been a long night
Tomorrow's another day
Call me when you find out the answer
And I'll hope and I'll pray
To a power
That'll keep me from going insane
In the meantime
Teenage lovers caught up in this dance
Pain's the price of this young romance
How was I such a young fool to know
Lord knows we got no direction from home baby
So I say this prayer

Take hold of me
Blessed powers that be
Love keep us together

Down with the rain came the news
That our wild ways would bring us a baby boy
Wash away all those innocent dreams
As the whole world turns upside down on me
And here I pray
To some power they say
Is gonna keep me from going insane
I don't think so child
I can't be strong unless I'm by your side
My weakness tells me to run for the hills
Responsibility beckons me
To think I'd dreamed that your kiss would set me free
I've never been so wrong

Take hold of me
Blessed powers that be
Love keep us together

There cries a child
So deep in the night
He needs a father somebody to set things right
I'm the one to love to hold him tight
To discount my love a serious oversight
Higher power has brought us together I know
She will keep us together wherever we go
Even if I live a thousand miles away
My love is pure, strong, it's here to stay

Together forever and a day
