When I was a little bit younger
The strain I was under
Could make me cry
Now I'm a little bit older
A little bit bolder
I'm never so shy!

Sweet darling (sweet darling)
Come hold me (come hold me)
Just a little bit longer now (just a little bit, just a little bit longer)
Sweet darling (sweet darling)
Come hold me (come hold me)
Just a little bit longer now (just a little bit, just a little bit longer)

When things were a little bit clearer
When we got nearer
I shied from your touch
Now that I know what I want, see
I think that it haunts me
I want you too much

Sweet darling (sweet darling)
Come hold me (come hold me)
Just a little bit longer now (just a little bit, just a little bit longer)
Sweet darling (sweet darling)
Come hold me (come hold me)
Just a little bit longer now (just a little bit, just a little bit longer)

Sweet darling (sweet darling)
Come hold me (come hold me)
Just a little bit longer now (just a little bit, just a little bit longer)
Sweet darling (sweet darling)
Come hold me (come hold me)
Just a little bit longer now (just a little bit, just a little bit longer)

Sweet darling (sweet darling)
Come hold me (come hold me)
Just a little bit longer now (just a little bit, just a little bit longer)
Sweet darling (sweet darling)
Come hold me (come hold me)
Just a little bit longer now (just a little bit, just a little bit longer)
