Standing in a crowded room, and I can't see your face
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)
Put your arms around me, tell me everything's okay
(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh)

Break my bones, but you won't see me fall, oh
The rising tide will rise against them all, oh

Darling, hold my hand
Oh, won't you hold my hand?
'Cause I don't wanna walk on my own anymore
Won't you understand?
'Cause I don't wanna walk alone

I'm ready for this, there's no denying
I'm ready for this, you stop me falling
I'm ready for this, I need you all in
I'm ready for this, so darling, hold my hand

Don't wanna know
That feeling when I'm all alone
So please don't make me wait, 'cause I don't wanna break
No, I don't wanna fall
When you're next to me
Can tell I'm not afraid to be
'Cause you don't make me wait, and never let me break
You never let me fall, ooh

Darling, hold my hand (ah-ah, ah-ah)
Oh, won't you hold my hand? (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
'Cause I don't wanna walk on my own anymore
Won't you understand? (Ah-ah)
'Cause I don't wanna walk alone

I'm ready for this, there's no denying
I'm ready for this, you stop me falling
I'm ready for this, I need you all in
I'm ready for this, so darling, won't you hold my hand?
