Lyrics

If I Hold You Once

Whoa! I think that you should stop right there.
I should say, "no." I want you, but I don't dare.
Here, at this moment, I feel so scared,
Standing so near the flame of a hot affair. (I'm truly afraid . . .)

Chorus:
'Cause if I hold you once, I'll hold you a thousand times.
If our bodies touch, I think I'll cross that line.
I'm better off to hold the thought in my mind.
'Cause if I hold you once, I'll hold you a thousand times.


I'm a happily married man.
Most of the time, my life goes along as planned.
We could let this thing get out of hand,
But I guarantee my wife wouldn't understand. (She's funny that way . . .)

(Repeat CHORUS)

Now, I've been true to her, I've never given in,
To passion like I feel for you, and I ain't about to begin!
(Repeat CHORUS)

I'll do what's right and hold you tight in my mind.
'Cause if I hold you once, I'll hold you a thousand times.
