When You Hold Me Tight - John Hiatt

When your heart touches mine

And my thoughts explode

When our wires get crossed

And the fire burns my soul

Then I know youre home

When you shine your light

And I dont have to use the phone

To call you

Baby when you hold me tight

We can count heartbeats and squeeze

Baby when you hold me tight

You can really make a man say, please

When Im down to my last

Cigarette in your bed

And the smoke rings blow

Through the dreams in your head

And we burn through the dark

With a light so bright

And the hardes part is leavin

Baby when you hold me tight

We can count heartbeats and squeeze

Baby when you hold me tight

You can really make a man say please

Please dont ever let go Please dont ever let go Please dont ever let go Good God it hurt me so Baby please dont let go Please dont ever let go Please dont ever let go Baby cause it hurt me so Hey baby

When the morning comes

And youre still here with me And you give me some

Of your sweet mystery

And it feels so real

And it feels so right

And I want your love

Forever

Baby when you hold me tight

We can count heartbeats and squeeze

Baby when you hold me tight

You can really make a man say please

Baby when you hold me tight

We can count heartbeats and squeeze

Baby when you hold me tight

You can really make a man say please
