Lyrics
Hold Me but Don't Hold Me Down
Verse:
He looked in her eyes
As her heard her reply
"Yes I love you, but there's something you should know"
There's a fire in my soul
That can't be controlled
I'm not the girl you loved so long ago"
Chorus:
Hold me but don't hold me down
I need your love to lift me higher
The best way to keep me around
Is to hold me but don't hold me down
Verse:
He flashed her a smile
And said, "I think I like your style
You know, you really haven't changed
You're still wild and free
But that's just right for me
Can't you see that we are just the same?"
Chorus:
Hold me but don't hold me down
I need your love to lift me higher
The best way to keep me around
Is to hold me but don't hold me down
Bridge:
I don't ever want to make the choice
Between the love of my life
And living my life
Chorus:
Hold me but don't hold me down
I need your love to lift me higher
The best way to keep me around
Is to hold me but don't hold me down
