Lyrics
Instrumental Intro – smooth jazz sax, blues guitar, gospel piano, soft rock drums, subtle country acoustic guitar, layered backup humming
Verse 1 – lead vocals
When the stars shine bright
And the night feels long
And the wind is whispering a gentle song
I won’t feel fear
No, I won’t shed tears
Just as long as you hold me close, hold me near
Verse 2 – lead & choir harmonizing
So darling, darling, hold me tight
Oh, hold me tight
Oh, hold, hold me close tonight
Hold me close tonight
Verse 3 – a cappella section, choir call-and-response
If the clouds above should hide the skies
And the rivers rise
I’ll stay calm as long as you’re right by my side
I won’t look back, no, I won’t stray
No, I won’t fade away
Just as long as you hold me close, hold me near
Instrumental Break – jazz sax solo, blues guitar, gospel piano
Verse 4 – lead vocals + choir harmonizing
Through the storms, through every trial
You give me hope, you make me smile
No shadow falls, no darkened night
Can break the warmth of your light
Instrumental Outro – extended solos, choir harmonizing, layered backup vocals
