Beautiful South Hold Me Close
There's something very English about 'forever' 'Hugs and kisses' are English too 'Forever and a day' has to be American But 'hold me close' is me and you 'Hold me close' is me and you So pilots do it in the air And surfers do it wave after wave But soon they'll be looking limp and lifeless We'll still be at it in our grave Chorus Hold me close, underground Hold me close, underground I'll be there, I'll wait for you In with the old, out with the new 'Man and wife' just doesn't suit us 'Just us two' is hardly true I couldn't care about Mr and Mrs But 'you and I' is me and you 'You and I' is me and you Potholers do it with the lights off Hikers do it long and slow I'll still be trying to get your clothes off When I lie 6ft below Chorus I'll be there, I'll wait for you Hold me close, underground In with the old, out with the new Hold me close, underground When it's turned to overbearing You and I will still be here
