Held

And when the lights go out at night
That's when I start to think
I think of trips around the world
I think of smiles and winks

And yes I think of other things
I'd love to hold your hand
And escort you into my arms
Wouldn't that be grand?

I don't know if I'd let go
I've wanted for so long
To hug and kiss, to feel your lips
On mine kiss out a song

At some point then I fall asleep
Somewhere that sleep does start
And my last thought is the one below
It's you holding my heart
