Your eyes seek conclusion
in all this confusion of mine
Though you and I both know
it's only the warm glow of wine
That's got you to feeling this way,
but I don't care,
I want you to stay
and hold me and tell me
you'll be here to love me today
Children are dancin', the gamblers
are chancin' their all
The window's accusing the door
of abusing the wall
But who cares what
the night watchmen say
The stage has been set for the play
Hold me and tell me
you'll be here to love me today
The moon's come and gone
but a few stars hang on on to the sky
The wind's runnin' free
but it ain't up to me ask why
The poets are demanding their pay
They've left me with nothin' to say
'cept hold me and tell me
you'll be here to love me today
Just hold me and tell me
that you'll be here to love me today
