Hold me close when I walk away
Hold me close when I want to stay
Hold me close when I'm running fast
'Cause you know I won't last
Hold me close when I doubt
Hold me close when I'm in love's drought
Hold me close when the night is black
You know that I've crashed,
But I know that you'll last
Chorus:
I can't last another day outside your walls
I'll rest within this place as I learn to crawl
Those crass yesterdays will remain long past
In your love, I'll last
Come to me in purple skies,
Come to me through longing eyes
Come to me, I'm so afraid,
Let your grace cascade
Come to me when my faith is a ghost,
Come to me, it's when I need you most
Come to me when my dreams are near
And I'll whisper in your ear
In hopes that we'll both hear
Chorus
Hold me close enough to touch,
'Cause I miss you, oh so much
Hold me close so I might fall
Into your gracious call
Come to me where I hide
Send your warmth deep inside
Come to me through barricades
Take me to golden parades
We'll march in gold parades…
