	C G                                                C                          
	Your eyes seek conclusion in all this confusion of mine
     	    G                                              C                             
	But you and I both know it's only the warm glow of wine
            	F         
	That's got you to feelin' this way
           	C      
	But I don't care I want you to stay
	G                                     F       C              
	Hold me and tell me you'll Be Here To Love Me today.
 

	The children are dancin' the gamblers are chancin' their all
	The window's accusin' the door of abusin' the wall
	But who cares what the night watchmen say
	The stage has been set for the play
	So hold me and tell me you'll Be Here To Love Me today.
 
	The moon's come and gone but a few stars hang on to the sky
	Where the wind's runnin' free but it ain't up to me to ask why
	But the poets are demandin' their pay
	They've left me with nothin' to say
	'Cept hold me and tell me you'll Be Here To Love Me today.
