Please let me hold you once again

Just let me hold you once again,

Pretend you love me, be my friend.
Lie beside me through the night,
Hold me close till morning light.
 
Play our song and pull me near,
Whisper words I need to hear.
Trace your fingers down my face,
Take me to our sacred place.
 
Where every kiss felt warm and true,
Where I belonged right there with you.
Before our love became this pain,
Before the sunshine turned to rain.
 
Hold me close and feel my breath,
Love me like there's nothing left.
Remember how we used to be,
When all you ever needed was me.
 
Rest your head and close your eyes,
Tonight we don't need alibis.
Don't tell me how or where or when,
Just let me hold you once again.
 
Pretend you love me one last night,
Until the darkness turns to light.
Give me a dream before you go,
One final lie I’ll never know.
 
And when the morning finds us then,
I know you'll have to leave again.
But stay until the night must end...
 
And let me hold you once again.
