When your heart touches mine
And my thoughts explode
When our wires get crossed
And the fire burns my soul

Then I know you're home
When you shine your light
And I don't 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 I'm 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 don't ever let go
Please don't ever let go
Please don't ever let go
Good god it hurt me so
Baby please don't let go
Please don't ever let go
Please don't ever let go
Baby cause it hurt me so
Hey baby

When the morning comes
And you're 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
