[Verse 1]
Like a picture, you came into my life
Like a picture, the colours fade away
Love is fragile, you hide it from the light
It lasts forever and always stays the same
Like a movie, you swept into my life
And like a movie, the stars just fade away
[Chorus]
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me all day
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me all day
[Verse 2]
Ah honey, while there's youth upon your face
Ah honey, are you tiring of the race?
My cards are on the table
You can get up and walk away
Or stay
Like a movie, you came into my life
Like a movie, the stars just fade away
All the characters are mouthing out their lines
And the love scenes are shot in shades of grey
[Chorus]
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me all day
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me all day
[Verse 3]
Ah baby, while there's youth upon your face
Ah baby, don't you lose that natural grace
My cards are on the table
You can get up and walk away
Or stay
[Chorus]
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me always
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me, stay close to me all day
[Outro]
Mmm, mmm, yes, uh, mmm, yes
Stay close to me, close to me all day
Stay close to me all day
Like a picture, you came into my life
Like a picture, the colours fade away
Love is fragile, you hide it from the light
It lasts forever and always stays the same
Like a movie, you swept into my life
And like a movie, the stars just fade away
[Chorus]
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me all day
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me all day
[Verse 2]
Ah honey, while there's youth upon your face
Ah honey, are you tiring of the race?
My cards are on the table
You can get up and walk away
Or stay
Like a movie, you came into my life
Like a movie, the stars just fade away
All the characters are mouthing out their lines
And the love scenes are shot in shades of grey
[Chorus]
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me all day
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me all day
[Verse 3]
Ah baby, while there's youth upon your face
Ah baby, don't you lose that natural grace
My cards are on the table
You can get up and walk away
Or stay
[Chorus]
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me always
Hang on to me tonight
Stay close to me, stay close to me all day
[Outro]
Mmm, mmm, yes, uh, mmm, yes
Stay close to me, close to me all day
Stay close to me all day
