I want to walk beside you
But the wind's too heavy
Now I'm trying to find you
And the road is long

I'm on a dried up river
Beside a broke down levee
I've got nothing to give you
But a lonesome song

Just a little bit worn out
Just a little bit bitter
I gotta let my guard down
I gotta loosen my grip

I hear these voices
They don't sound familiar
Making all of these choices
Taking all these trips

If I hold you tonight
I may not let go

Now it's come a long way
And my heart feels older
And I feel that shiver
Running down my spine

And the ground is frozen
And the air is colder
But my heart is open
Beating out of time

And if I hold you tonight
I may not let go
And if I hold you tonight
I may not let go

Show me the place I can hide
Tell me you'll see me tonight

Old train keeps rolling
Nowhere bound
I hear the whistle blowing
Such a lonely sound

And if I hold you tonight
I may not let go
And if I hold you tonight
I may not let go
Oh, and if I hold you tonight
I may not let go
