Martin Sexton - Love Keep Us Together lyrics

Hold me tight don't say goodnight

And I'll let you know that I care

Wait a little longer don't let me be

And I'll comfort you from the storm

It's been a long night tomorrow's another day

Call me when you find out the answer

And I'll hope and I'll pray

To a power that will keep me from goin' insane in the meantime

Teenage lovers caught up in this dance

Pain's the price of this young romance

How was I such a young fool to know

Lord knows I got no direction from home

So I say this prayer

Take hold of me blessed powers that be

Love keep us together

Down with the rain came the news

That our wild ways gonna bring us a baby boy

Wash away all those innocent dreams

Now my whole world is turned upside-down on me

And here I pray

To some power they say's gonna keep me from goin' insane

I can't be strong unless I'm by your side

My weakness tells me to run for the hills

Responsibility beckons me

To think I dreamed your kiss would set me free

Well I've never been so wrong

Chorus

There cries a child so deep in the night

He needs a father somebody to set things right

I am the one to love to hold him tight

To discount by love a serious oversight

Higher power has brought us together I know

She will keep us together wherever we go

Even if I live a thousand miles away

My love is pure and strong and here to stay
