Hold me tight tonight

Don't let me go

Hold me tight tonight

As fat tears flow

Hold me tight tonight

As my sorrows grow

Hold me tight tonight

Please pull me close

Hold me tight tonight

So I will know

That your love will always blow

Away sorrow's dust that coats my soul

Yes, please hold me tight tonight

Don't let me go

Until the Eastern light begins to glow.

Yes, I'll hold you tight tonight

And keep you close

Until you know

That the Eastern light has brought new hope.
