To whosoever cares
Hold me now
(Yes hold me tight)
Don't let me go
We have tried so hard
To make this
emerald love work
But the evil universe
in it's blind pursuit
Of our downfall still
refuses to give
Her stamp of approval
Hold me here
(Yes hold me close for
the benefit of you comfort)
The environment in which
we want to plant the seed
Of this love and watch it
sprout into full life
Is not conducive to our
kind of full blown romance
Hold this hand of mine
We fought for love
And not for this
eyesore of naked racism
And sectarian violence
and hatred engulfed
Political instability
Hold me now
(God knows I want
to feel your petite body
close to my shivering one)
Don't let me disappear
I know you will not make
it without me
Hold me now
Breath some fire into
My cold heart
Don't you ever vanish
You know I am not safe
In the global village of
the enjoyment of the few
Oh hold me so close to you
Make me feel loved
And appreciated
You're the miracle I need
to survive the storms
Of life if
You let me hold you now
