Another time, another place, The same old clothes the same old face, But something different in her eyes! She says she’s found another man, Who says cares and understands. But can he really take my place? Can she say he’s loved her half as much As I have loved her all my life? Will she open up her arms to him? Will he take her as his wife?
Hold me close and never let me go, I’m just a child I know. I need you now, don’t leave me on my own. So hold me close and never let me go. Come clothe me with your love. Give me peace within my heart The something different in her eyes!
This is no ordinary man. I know his face and nail scarred hands The something different in her eyes. He said I've known you all your life Watched laugh; seen you cry In your struggle to survive. On a cross He showed His love for us, The penalty that should be ours. And He opened up His arms for us And said, ‘Come be my bride.’
Hold me close and never let me go, I’m just a child like her. I need to know the touch of Father’s hand. So hold me close and never let me go. Come clothe me with your love. Give me peace within my heart The something different in her eyes! (repeat chorus)
