[Verse 1] You came in tired Hair still wet From that late train ride And I felt it then
Your hand on mine Like a small lit match In a room that froze The second you passed
[Pre-Chorus] Say my name slow Let the dark come down If your heart shakes I can hold you now
[Chorus] Hold my name Hold it close When the world goes cold Hold my name Hold it close I won't let you go (hold my name) (hold my name)
[Verse 2] I watched you laugh At the cracked-up mug And the way your eyes Hide what they're made of
You don't have to be Made of steel tonight You can lean on me Till the morning light
[Pre-Chorus] Say my name slow Let the hurt unwind If your voice breaks I will stay the line
[Chorus] Hold my name Hold it close When the world goes cold Hold my name Hold it close I won't let you go (hold my name) (hold my name)
[Bridge] If your shadows come I'll stand right there If your hands go numb I'll still be there
Take all you need Take all my time You don't have to fall You can fall on mine
[Final Chorus] Hold my name Hold it close When the world goes cold Hold my name Hold it close I won't let you go Hold my name Hold it close Till the hurt lets go (hold my name) (hold my name)
