[Intro] (soft wordless moan "ohh... ohh" — 4 bars, brushed drums swell, organ pad) [Verse 1] The clock is turning slow tonight Shadows falling in the candlelight I have waited all my days For a love to burn away the haze [Pre-Chorus] And now you're standing at my door Lord, I don't need nothing more [Chorus] Hold the night for me Don't you let it end Hold the night for me My lover and my friend [Verse 2] Rain is knocking on the pane Every drop, it calls your name I was lonely, I was cold Now your arms are all I hold [Pre-Chorus] So kiss me like the morning waits Before the daylight breaks [Chorus] Hold the night for me Don't you let it end Hold the night for me My lover and my friend [Bridge] (build, gospel swell, backing "oohs") I've been down, I've been low But your love won't let me go Ohh, hold me now [Outro] (vocal ad-libs fading "hold me now... ohh, stay with me")
