Richard Marx
Hold On to the Nights
1988
---------------------

Just when I believed I couldn't ever want for more
This ever changing world pushes me through another door
I saw you smile.
And my mind could not erase the beauty of your face.
Just for awhile,
Won't you let me shelter you.

CHORUS
Hold on to the nights
Hold on to the memories
I wish that I could give you something more.
That I could be yours.

How do we explain something that took us by surprise?
Promises in vain, love that is real but in disguise.
What happens now?
Do we break another rule?
Let our lovers play the fool?
I don't know how
To stop feeling this way

CHORUS

Well, I think that I've been true to everybody else but me
And the way I feel about you makes my heart long to be free.
Everytime I look into your eyes, I'm helplessly aware
That the someone I've been looking for is right there.

CHORUS
