Take these arms and hold me tight
I need to be with you tonight
Don't keep me hangin' on too long
Please try hard to understand
I just gotta be your man
Don't keep me hangin' on too long
'Cause if you wait another day
I may be very far away
You're risking love and true romance
If you don't give me a chance
Time is no longer on your side
There's no place left to hide
With me is where you belong
'Cause if you wait another day
I may be very far away
I can't bear seeing you again
As just friends
Tell me what you are thinking of
If you really want my love
Don't keep me hangin' on too long
Don't keep me hangin' on
Don't keep me hangin' on
Don't keep me hangin' on too long
