Beautiful South - Hold Me Close Lyrics
(heaton/rotheray)There's something very english about 'forever''hugs and kisses' are english too'forever and a day' has to be americanBut 'hold me close' is me and you'hold me close' is me and youSo pilots do it in the airAnd surfers do it wave after waveBut soon they'll be looking limp and lifelessWe'll still be at it in our graveHold me close, undergroundHold me close, undergroundI'll be there, i'll wait for youIn with the old, out with the new'man and wife' just doesn't suit us'just us two' is hardly trueI couldn't care about mr and mrsBut 'you and i' is me and you'you and i' is me and youPotholers do it with the lights offHikers do it long and slowI'll still be trying to get your clothes offWhen i lie 6ft belowHold me close, undergroundHold me close, undergroundI'll be there, i'll wait for youIn with the old, out with the newI'll be there, i'll wait for youHold me close, undergroundIn with the old, out with the newHold me close, undergroundWhen it's turned to overbearingYou and i will still be here
