Hold Me Lyrics

[Verse 1: Teddy Pendergrass]
I'll hold you, and touch you
And make you my woman
I'll give you my love with sweet surrender
Tonight our hearts will beat as one
And I will hold you, touch you
And make you my woman tonight

[Pre-Chorus 1: Whitney Houston]
There's something in your eyes I see
A pure and simple honesty

[Chorus: Teddy Pendergrass & Whitney Houston]
Hold me in your arms tonight
Fill my life with pleasure
Let's not waste this precious time
This moment's ours to treasure
Hold me in your arms tonight
We'll make it last forever
When the morning sun appears
We'll find our way together

[Verse 2: Whitney Houston]
I believe you when you say that you love me
Know that I won't take you for granted
Tonight the magic has begun
So won't you hold me, touch me?
Make me your woman tonight
[Pre-Chorus 2: Teddy Pendergrass]
There's something in your eyes I see
I won't betray your trust in me

[Chorus: Teddy Pendergrass & Whitney Houston]
Hold me in your arms tonight
Fill my life with pleasure
Let's not waste this precious time
This moment's ours to treasure
Hold me in your arms tonight
We'll make it last forever
When the morning sun appears
We'll find our way together

[Bridge: Teddy Pendergrass & (Whitney Houston)]
I'll hold you (Hold you)
And touch you (Touch me, baby)
And make you my woman (Make me your woman)
Tonight (Tonight)

[Chorus: Both, (Teddy Pendergrass), (Whitney Houston)]
Hold me in your arms tonight
Fill my life with pleasure (Theres something in your eyes I see)
Let's not waste this precious time
This moment's ours to treasure
Hold me in your arms tonight (Ooh, baby)
We'll make it last forever (Something in your eyes I see)
When the morning sun appears (When the sun appears)
We'll find our way together
Hold me in your arms tonight (Hold me in your arms)
Fill my life with pleasure (There's something in your eyes I see)
Let's not waste this precious time (Ooh)
This moment's ours to treasure
(So hold me, just hold me in your arms, baby)
Hold me in your arms tonight
We'll make it last forever (There's something in your eyes I see)
When the morning sun appears
We'll find our way together
Hold me in your arms tonight
