"Hold me now"

"Hold me now" was a song by the British Pop Band Thompson Twins released in 1983 ( whoah I was a teeny thrice year old bouncin babeh boy AKA baby girl ) and used in the soundtrack for the movie" The Wedding Singer" in 1998 featuring Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler . That's a very good movie I might add, very very funny! This is such a good song, lyrics good too, but now everytime I hear it I think it's my cell phone ringing cause I set this as a ringtone on my old phone for a period of time .

Anyhoo I love these lyrics, especially the line "But you know that there's nowhere that I'd rather be than with you here today" , It's so sweet and I can relate. You know at this point in time today in about 4 hours there'll be nowhere that I'd rather be than eating those tiny bites of heaven ... SUSHI TRAIN!! I'm so excited! Yes I am on weight watchers still but I'm allowed Sushi ( well who's gonna know if I go over by a couple of points anyway?) Dieting should be a sin I tell you , food glorious food is a gift of pleasure ....speaking of which I'm not sure if I mentioned I'm a lady of leisure. I am currently unemployed and this writing keeps me sane as I'd like to go and eat myself into an oblivion , eat myself to a stoopa (I'm sure It's something along those lines)

So back to the song I think it talks about a relationship which is slowly going downhill , I don't think it means they are actually breaking up ( don't be a prophet of doom now )Every relationship goes through it's ups and downs and this is probably talking about that point in time where things are just not so dandy. You know it takes me back to the first time I tried "Crunchie" Icecream back in the 90's, it was love at first site and bite ,but I overindulged at one point and after that it wasn't as exciting as the beginning. But that was just a downphase which is natural in any relationship .. now we have a special understanding and we are aware this is perfectly normal :)

Here are the lyrics and video below

I have a picture
Pinned to my wall
An image of you and of me
And we're laughing with love in our eyes

Look at our life now
Tattered and torn
We're fussing and fighting
Delighting with tears
And we cry until dawn

Oh, hold me now
Warm my heart
Stay with me
Let loving start
Let loving start

You say I'm a dreamer
We're two of a kind
Both of us searching
For some perfect world
We know we'll never find

So perhaps I should leave here
Yeah, go far away
But you know that
There's nowhere
That I'd rather be
Than with you here today

Oh, hold me now
Oh, warm my heart
Stay with me
Let loving start
Let loving start

Oh, hold me now
Warm my heart
Stay with me
Let loving start
Let loving start

You ask if I love you
What can I say?
You know that I do
And that this is
Just one of those games that we play

So I sing you a new song
Please don't cry any more
And I ask your forgiveness
Though I don't know
Just what I'm asking it for

Oh, hold me now
(Hold me in your loving arms)
Warm my heart
(Oh, your cold and tired arms)
Stay with me
Let loving start
Let loving start
