Just hold me now, just hold me now
Say you'll stay forever
Say the day will never come
Just hold me now, just hold me now
Stay this way forever, oh
'Cause we've only just begun 

Tell me why do lovers have to leave?
I know it happens all the time
And it's so sad 'cause this time it's you and me
I know I'm losing you but I just can't believe it, baby 

Just hold me now, just hold me now
Say you'll stay forever
Say the day will never come
Just hold me now, just hold me now
Stay this way forever, oh
'Cause we've only just begun 

Tell me why do feelings have to change?
What happened to the love I knew?
Feel it fading a little more each day
And so I'm losing you but I can't take the truth now, baby 

Just hold me now, just hold me now
Say you'll stay forever
Say the day will never come
Just hold me now, just hold me now
Stay this way forever, oh
'Cause we've only just begun 

'Cause we've only just begun 

Tell me why do lovers have to leave?
I know it happens all the time
And it's so sad (so sad) 'cause this time it's you and me
I know I'm losing you but I just can't believe it, baby 

Just hold me now, just hold me now
Say you'll stay forever
Say the day will never come
Just hold me now, just hold me now
Stay this way forever, oh
'Cause we've only just begun 

Tell me why do lovers have to leave?
