Hold Me

K. T. Oslin


Husband comes home and he says, “Wife turn down the radio, turn off the TV and listen to me.Let me tell you about my day.”
And she sits down and she listens and he begins to speak.

(sung)

When I left here this morning
I was bound and determined
I was never gonna come back
Never, never, I was running
I was running from you darling
I was running from my job
I was running from the kid in me
He never knows when to stop
Got as far as the edge of town
Then I turned my car around
And headed back to you

(spoken)
Husband says, “Wife, what do you think?”
Wife says, “It’s very interesting. Before we talk about your day let’s talk about mine.”
And she says

(sung)
When I left here this morning
I was bound and determined
I was never gonna come back
Never, never, I was running
I was running from you darling
I was running from my job
I was running from some wrinkles
No cream will stop
Got as far as the edge of town
Then I turned my car around
And headed back to you

Come here and hold me tighter
Tell me tomorrow will be brighter
Kiss me, kiss me a little harder
Don’t kiss like we’re married
Kiss me like we’re lovers

We looked at each other
And we started to grin
This morning it was over
This evening we’ll start it all over again

Come her and hold me, hold me tighter
Won’t you tell me tomorrow’ll be brighter
Won’t you kiss me, kiss me, kiss me a little harder
Honey don’t kiss me like we’re married
Kiss me like we’re lovers and hold me
Hold me, hold me
