Hold onto me
just a bit
I will never walk away
unless you ask me

Hold onto me
I need you to stay
whatever you do
don't walk away
no matter what I might say

Lie down with me
keep it fantasy
promise
not to make
any promises
and
I’ll promise
not to leave

I am not the friend you miss
You are not the lover that I crave
let's lie down, anyway

Let me lay with you
if only for a while
I'll heal your ache
you can find my smile

I promise not to promise
we can pretend it's all true
I promise not to promise
or ask anything real from you

First of all, let me say...it's been a really long day!
This was a blast to write with ya, Susan. You can sure make a little dog wanna run off that porch. (You'll understand later, trust me)
Thank you all for responding. I would've jumped in here sooner but I was too busy running around to florists!
Tracey...you got class, darlin.

Wow you two

You did wonderfully! I loved the whole thing, but this was my favorite verse:

"Let me lay with you
if only for a while
I'll heal your ache
you can find my smile"

I really enjoyed!

A wonderful duet you two!

You are not the lover that I crave
let's lie down, anyway "

we can pretend it's all true
I promise not to promise
or ask anything real from you"
