Would you hold me when I'm scared sometimes
When this world's left me cold and alone
And give me shelter when I need to hide
When this silence chills me to the bone
There are places that I never wanted to go
And there are things that I never wanted to know
There is a place behind your eyes
Darker than the world where the shadows go
And in the silence beneath your smile
Lie the secrets that I'll never know
I'm not afraid of the things might find
I'm only frightened of the darkness that waits behind
chorus
So gimme shelter when I'm left with
No longing
No pride
No revelation
In my heart there's only you
So hold me, give me comfort
Nobody cares for you like I do
I don't know how long I'll beg you to stay
I can't describe my fear when you turn away
Would you hold me when I'm scared sometimes
When this world's left me cold and alone
Give me shelter when I need to hide
When this silence chills me to the bone
And take me places that I never wanted to go
And show me things that I never wanted to know
chorus
