Hold You Dear - The Secret Sisters Lyrics

Hold You Dear

To the lover of my youth, the solace for my age
My protection from what harms
You will reach for me on our darkest days
And I will come home to your arms

And I will hold you dear
While my shadow's long and my eyes are clear
I know these days will pass away
So, I will hold you dear
Oh, blessed mother and the father I adore
There is time upon your faces
I will cherish you until you leave me for your eternal holy places

And I will hold you dear
While my shadow's long and my eyes are clear
I know these days will pass away
So, I will hold you dear

You're a part of me and the one I love
The sweetest years won't tarry
You will reach for me when my arms are full
And I will lay down the things I carry

And I will hold you dear
While my shadow's long and my eyes are clear
I know these days will pass away
So, I will hold you dear

I know these days will pass away
So, I will hold you dear
