Intro

When I was a little bit younger

 The strain I was under could make me cry

Now I’m a little bit older,

 A little bit bolder

Never so shy

Sweet darlin’, come hold me,

Just a little bit longer now

Sweet darlin’, come hold me,

Just a little bit longer now

When things were a little bit clearer

When you got nearer

 I shied from your touch

Now that I know what I want, see,

I think that it haunts me,

I want you too much

Sweet darlin’, come hold me,

Just a little bit longer now

Sweet darlin’, come hold me,

Just a little bit longer now

(just bass and vocals)

Sweet darlin’, come hold me,

Just a little bit longer now

Sweet darlin’, come hold me,

Just a little bit longer now

(band enters)

Sweet darlin’, come hold me,

Just a little bit longer now

Sweet darlin’, come hold me,

Just a little bit longer now

Repeats until fade.

Sweet darlin’
