  Your eyes seek conclusion in all this confusion of mine

  But you and I both know it's only the warm glow of wine

  That's got you to feelin' this way

  But I don't care I want you to stay

  Hold me and tell me you'll Be Here To Love Me today.

The children are dancin' the gamblers are chancin' their all

The window's accusin' the door of abusin' the wall

But who cares what the night watchmen say

The stage has been set for the play

So hold me and tell me you'll Be Here To Love Me today.

The moon's come and gone but a few stars hang on to the sky

Where the wind's runnin' free but it ain't up to me to ask why

But the poets are demandin' their pay

They've left me with nothin' to say

'Cept hold me and tell me you'll Be Here To Love Me today.
