5.6 When I hold you tonight

[Intro – gentle acoustic guitar, soft bass, warm vintage tone] [Verse 1] You wrote a note that simply said "Meet me where the old band plays" That little café down the street Just like in younger days I saw you standing by the door The way you used to do And suddenly the years between Felt like a day or two [Pre-Chorus] The band began a slow love song And time just slipped away [Chorus – very melodic, slow and emotional] Baby when you look at me tonight I feel the way I used to do Baby when you hold me close I still belong to you Baby when the music starts again And we slowly start to sway Baby I still love you More than yesterday [Verse 2] The violins were playing soft The lights were turning low Your head was resting on my chest Just like so long ago We moved a little closer still Until our hearts were near And every step upon that floor Erased another year [Pre-Chorus] The band kept playing tenderly And neither let go [Chorus – very melodic, slow and emotional] Baby when you look at me tonight I feel the way I used to do Baby when you hold me close I still belong to you Baby when the music starts again And we slowly start to sway Baby I still love you More than yesterday [Bridge – softer] Maybe time can change the world Maybe years can fly But love remembers every touch And every silent sigh [Final Chorus] [Chorus – very melodic, slow and emotional] Baby when you look at me tonight I feel the way I used to do Baby when you hold me close I still belong to you Baby when the music starts again And we slowly start to sway Baby I still love you More than yesterday [Outro – guitar fading, night ambience, footsteps walking home]
