Come sit by me and hold me tight
Never let me go
Come whisper sweet things in my ear
Please baby; I have to know
That what we have is strong and real
That you’ll never leave me lonely
Now and forever I want you to know
That you’re my one and only
The love of my life
The star in my skies
They twinkle when you smile
Baby your love is the fuel to my heart
With it, I could run for miles
But it seems along the way our love has floundered
And its left me quite a bit strained
Cuz without you in my life to cherish
Nothing more I’d have to gain
This feeling, it burns, deep down in my soul
I want it to go away
But I know the cure
Please tell me baby
That you’re here to stay
So once again I say to you
Sit with me and hold me tight
Love me tender
Now till forever
For surely I’ll be alright!

I wrote this while I was in a relationship with a girl I really thought I loved and I felt like we were losing our spark.

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
