All of my dear dreams are torn away from me
Numb to the bone it seems that I should waste away
Look at the sunset sky, the reds are like my eyes
Hold me and keep me high, the fall could make me die

Hold me close until the night is over
Hold me close until the night is over
Hold me close until the night is over
Hold me close until the night is over

School just fades to grey, a troublesome old friend
Don't ever talk to him, he's likely to offend
A tragic figure, I would rather die than be
A tragic figure, I can't change cos I can't breathe

Hold me close until the night is over
Hold me close until the night is over
Hold me close until the night is over
Hold me close until the night is over

Hold me close until the night is over
Hold me close until the night is over
Hold me close until the night is over
Hold me close until the night is over
