Cm                G#
Sun lights up the day time,
A#              Cm
You light up my life.
                         G#
The hand that calls you forward
        A#                    Cm
is the hand that leaves me behind.

And I stand on the ocean shore
Like an old black and white movie
Love is tears, love is lost, again tonight

Chorus:
Cm       G#   A#   Cm
Hold me, hold me tonight
Cm       G#   A#   Cm
Hold me, hold me tonight

You’ve got a book like this
To keep me alive
And if its not a rainy day
You simply don’t go outside

And you’re tired of everything
All of the girls and the boys
And you’re tired of everything
All of your precious toys

Chorus:
Hold me, hold me tonight
Hold me, hold me goodnight

Sun lights up the daytime
You light up my life
The hand that calls you forward
Is the hand, that leaves me behind

Chorus:
Hold me, hold me tonight
Hold me, hold me tonight
