Verse 1:

Will you hold me close to you

So that you can feel the beating of my heart

I could have all the time in this world

It won't mean anything, if we spend it apart

Chorus:

Time takes its toll on us

It leaves me with too much absence of you to swallow

But you know we are both too strong, we can carry on

Happiness will follow

Verse 2:

One quiet whisper, is all I needed to hear

From you, from your eyes

Leaving this place gets harder every time

For me, I can't disguise

Bridge:

It's hard because it's never you

When I think I see you in a crowd

So won't you try and understand how much I need you now

I need you now

Chorus:

Repeat

Bridge 2:

Won't you try and understand how much I need you now

I need you now
