Hold me tonight gaat over een fictief verhaal over twee

Tekst:

I've been on the road since September
And I won't be home before May
It is going to be a cold December
Without you to warm me every day

It's late and the evening is falling
But there is a shimmering light
A place where the fire is burning

Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight
Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight

I'll take that morning train, won't be back again
You will forget about me
But I will remember this night in December
That morning it all came to me

Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight
Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight

Nothing ever seems to happen
In this New Mexico town
Since they closed the mine in Red River
Nothing is going to turn me around

I'm selling gas at the station
But every car is just passing by
One day I'll decide and hitch me a ride

Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight
Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight

I'll take that morning train, won't be back again
You will forget about me
But I will remember that night in December
That morning it all came to me

Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight
Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight

One day I'll decide (you kept me warm)
Hitch me a ride (and I will be gone)
I'm going leave all my troubles behind

Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight
Leave me tomorrow, hold me tonight
