I never knew if I was on the ground
Or in the sky, what does it matter
When you’re singing to no one?
But you were holding your breath
Like a good little boy, saving it all
In your dreams for a someone
Th3e brightest star we were wishing on
The same refrain
Walk with me a little closer
Hold my hand a little tighter
Look at me like you love me, baby
And I’ll love you back
And like a lonesome dandelion
Watching all the seeds blow by
You said a prayer for
The one who was missing
And then my cup, it overflowed
Couldn’t hold against the tide
Spilling it all at your feet
Like a blessing
The bluest eyes singing all the words
I knew by heart
Walk with me a little closer
Hold my hand a little tighter
Look at me like you love me, baby
And I’ll love you back
Unfold this paper
Remember all the poetry in my heart
Is saying
Walk with me a little closer
Hold my hand a little tighter
Look at me like you love me, baby
And I’ll love you back
Yes, I’ll love you back
