D# C# G# G#sus4
Your eyes seek conclusion in all this confusion of mine
D# C# G# G#sus4
Though you and I both know it's only the warm glow of wine
C# G#
That's got you to feeling this way, but I don't care,
I want you to stay
D# C# G#
And hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today
D# C# G# G#sus4
Children are dancin', the gamblers are chancin' their all
D# C# G#
The window's accusing the door of abusing the wall
C#
But who cares what the night watchmen say
G#
The stage has been set for the play
D# C# G#
Hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today
D# C# G#
G#sus4
The moon's come and gone but a few stars hang on on to the sky
D# C# G# G#sus4
The wind's runnin' free but it ain't up to me ask why
C#
The poets are demanding their pay
G# G#sus4
They've left me with nothin' to say
D# C# G#
'cept hold me and tell me you'll be here to love me today
D# C# G#
Just hold me and tell me that you'll be here to love me today
