Hold me before I'm gone forever
Underneath the setting sun
I wish we could make that trip together
But that old train is boarding one by one
My dear, we have travelled far together
Climbed the mountain, swum the sea
Still, there are so many places calling us
So won't you see the rest for me?
And hold me before I'm gone forever
'Cause it's all that we can do
I wish could make that trip together
But I'll go on ahead and wait for you
It's true that my candle's burning lower
But I'm content to hold your hand
The mystery of the dark, it never bothered me
'Cause your love is all I need to understand
Hold me before I'm gone forever
'Cause it's all that we can do
I wish we could make that trip together
But I'll go on ahead and wait for you
I wish we could make that trip together
But I'll be awaiting somewhere, dear, for you
