The next time your chest is pressed against the one you love
When the words won't leave your tongue
When your heart is broken and raw
Hold the hug too long
Give the gift we often lack
Grab the fabric on their back
When they're sure they're not welcome
When they were all along
Hold the hug too long
Hold them close cuz you need them
Lay your life and your freedom
Kick the lines in the sand
After all they were drawn by man
Hold the hug too long
The next time your chest is pressed against the one you love
When the words won't leave your tongue
When your heart is broken and raw
Hold the hug too long
