WITH YOU

THERE?S A BOAT IN THE HARBOR, FROM THE SHORE I WATCH IT GO
THOUGHTS OF YOU MAKE ME WONDER OF THE THINGS I DO NOT KNOW
AS I WATCHED IT SAIL AWAY, OH, I THOUGHT I HEARD YOU SAY?

CHORUS:
LET ME GO, HOLD ME TIGHT, PLAY THE GAME, FIGHT THE FIGHT
DANCE THE DANCE, TAKE THE CHANCE, EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT
WE WILL NEVER BE APART, I?LL BE WITH YOU IN YOUR HEART

THERE?S A BIRD IN THE DISTANCE, SOARING PROUDLY THROUGH BLUE SKIES
AND I RECALL THAT ONCE YOU TOLD ME YOU BELIEVED ONE DAY YOU?D FLY
AS I WATCHED IT SLIP AWAY, I WAS SURE I HEARD YOU SAY?

CHORUS:
LET ME GO, HOLD ME TIGHT, PLAY THE GAME, FIGHT THE FIGHT
DANCE THE DANCE, TAKE THE CHANCE, EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT

BRIDGE:
EVERYDAY THERE?S SOMETHING TO REMIND ME
WITHOUT YOU, THERE?S SO MUCH MORE TO FEAR
WHEN I REACH FOR SOMETHING REAL TO GUIDE ME
IT?S YOUR VOICE THAT I HEAR?

CHORUS:
LET ME GO, HOLD ME TIGHT, PLAY THE GAME, FIGHT THE FIGHT
DANCE THE DANCE, TAKE THE CHANCE, EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT
WE WILL NEVER BE APART, NO, WE?LL NEVER EVER, EVER BE APART,
WE WILL NEVER BE APART, CUZ I?LL BE WITH YOU IN YOUR HEART
