[INTRO – 2 BAR]
(Soft spoken)
Come here baby…
Yeah…
Just let me hold you tonight…

[VERSE 1]
You been dealin’ with pressure
All day at your job
People smiling in your face
But behind your back they talk

Phone keep ringin’
Everybody need somethin’
Family stressin’ you out
Like you owe ‘em all or somethin’

And I can see it in your eyes
Baby you tired
You carry everybody else
But who gon’ lift you higher?

So come and lay right here
And let the world slow down
Ain’t gotta say a word
Girl I got you now

[HOOK]
Let me hold you
Lay your head on my shoulder baby
Let me love you
Like you deserve to be loved lately

Forget about your hard day
Forget about your stress
Tonight it’s all about you
Girl come and get this rest

Let me hold you
Till your pain just fades away
Ain’t nobody gonna hurt you
Long as I’m around today

[VERSE 2]
You always there for everybody
But they don’t pour back in
Soon as you need somebody
That’s when the silence begin

Girl you been so strong
For way too long
But even strong women
Need somebody to lean on

So let me rub your shoulders
Run my fingers through your hair
Put that phone on silent
Ain’t nobody else in here

Light some candles baby
Put on your favorite song
And let me remind your heart
What real love feels like all night long

[HOOK]
Let me hold you
Lay your head on my shoulder baby
Let me love you
Like you deserve to be loved lately

Forget about your hard day
Forget about your stress
Tonight it’s all about you
Girl come and get this rest

Let me hold you
Till your pain just fades away
Ain’t nobody gonna hurt you
Long as I’m around today

[BRIDGE]
(Spoken softly)
Yeah…
I know they been pullin’ on you baby…
Everybody always needin’ somethin’ from you…
But tonight…
This your time…
Just relax for me…
I got you…

[VAMP / OUTRO]
Let me hold you…
Let me love you baby…
Everything gon’ be alright…
Long as I got you here tonight…
