If You Don`t Want Me To — текст песни (Glenn Hughes)

this is the time
this is the place
so don`t hold back
I need to feel your warm embrace
ever so tenderly and - oh baby

there`s no time for hatred
there`s no time for war
and there`s no anger in my body anymore
`cause I have learned to love
learned to love again

no, I won`t fall to pieces
no, I won`t be that way
`cause I have tasted freedom
in the things I say

Chorus:

can I hold you close
let me feel you near
and I will never let you go
if you don`t want me to

just say the word
and I will be there for you darlin`
you know I hunger for your touch
and there`s no time for sadness
and there`s no time for pain
and there`s no time for sorrow
I`m free again
and I will be this way
forever, and ever and ever

can I hold you close...

here is the body
let`s break the bread
let`s drink the wine from a cup of happiness
and I will never leave you
in winter, spring or fall
`cause I have grown to love,
each day I love you more
`cause I have always been
the one you`ve been waiting for

no, I won`t fall to pieces
no, I won`t be that way

if you don`t want me to
if you don`t want me to
if you don`t want me to

this is the time
this is the place
so don`t hold back
I need to feel your warm embrace

there`s no time for hatred
and there`s no time for war
there`s no anger in my body anymore
`cause I have always been
the one you`ve been waiting for
I will never let you go
if you don`t me to
