When I'm Holding You Tight
--words and music by Kevin Raleigh

from "MSB", 1982, EMI Records Group
I get this feeling whenever I
  Touch you
I keep believing
That someday you'll feel it to
You kept the fire burning deep in
  My heart
I never knew
You played along and took what
  You needed
I was wrong to think I could ever
  Get through
You've got this way of making
   Your lies feel true...

		When I'm holding you tight
		  (when I'm holding you tight)
		When I'm holding you tight
		  Now girl
		I can't let you know that I'm on
		  To you
		I can't let you go
		You make it so that

		When I'm holding you tight, baby yeah
		When I'm holding you tight
		  Now girl
		I can't let you know that I'm on
		  To you
		I can't let you go
		When I'm holding you tight...

So many nights alone in
  The darkness
Just me and you
We both had someone to use
We played a game with no rules
That we couldn't lose
I needed love, you wanted a lover
I needed someone
And there couldn't be another
  Like you
You've go this way of making
  Your lies feel true...

		When I'm holding you tight
		  (when I'm holding you tight)
		When I'm holding you tight
		  Now girl
		I, I can't let you know that I'm on
		  To you
		I can't let you go
		You make it so that

		When I'm holding you tight, baby yeah
		When I'm holding you tight
		  Now girl
		I can't let you know that I'm on
		  To you
		I can't let you go
		When I'm holding you tight...

	When I'm holding you tight
	You make me feel like I'm someone
	And it all seems so right
	We close our eyes and we
	  Take some
	And I guess that ain't bad
	  (guess that ain't bad)
	If we had each other
	Whatever reasons we had
	We still needed one another baby...

		When I'm holding you tight
		  (when I'm holding you tight)
		When I'm holding you tight
		  Now girl
		I can't let you know that I'm on
		  To you
		I can't let you go
		You make it so that

		When I'm holding you tight, baby yeah
		When I'm holding you tight
		  Now girl
		I can't let you know that I'm on
		  To you
		I can't let you go
		When I'm holding you tight...
		Ooh baby, when I'm holding you tight...
