I Wish That I Could Hold You
Now when the concert's over
At the ending of my day
The spotlights dim
The crowd has all gone home
I think about you, honey
You're the only one I love
I wish that I could hold you in my arms
If I could take your hand
I would never let it go
Then you'd understand
What words can't show
I would pull you closer
And push the world away
I wish that I could hold you in my arms
I hold you in my mind
Hold you in my heart
I hold you in my dreams
I wish that I could hold you in my arms
Now if you choose to love me
Our love could make a son
I wish that I could hold him in my arms
I could dress our little daughter
And hug her when I'm done
I wish that I could hold her in my arms
If I could hold their hands
I would never let them go
Then they'd understand
What words can't show
I'd pick them up and rock them
As the lullaby is sung
I wish that I could hold them in my arms
I hold them in my mind
Hold them in my heart
I hold them in my dreams
I wish that I could hold them in my arms
You know I'll always lift you up, my friend
My reach will always keep you safe from harm
And if by chance you were to fall again
I'd pick you up to hold you in my arms
Yes, I'd pick you up to hold you in my arms
