Hold Me Now - Thompson Twins (cover-live by Bill Sharkey)
Hold Me Now (Thompson Twins, The, 1983). Live cover performance by Bill Sharkey, Home Studio, Hawaii Kai, HI. 2022-06-28. "Keeping the Oldies Alive"
"Hold Me Now," written by Tom Bailey, Alannah Currie and Joe Leeway, was the Thompson Twins' highest charting single rising to the no. 3 position on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1983 (Whitburn, 2013) and no. 4 on the UK Singles chart (Lyrics, 2016). According to Bailey during an interview with songfacts (2014), Bailey and Currie "'wrote the song after a heated argument that they had resolved. 'We actually decided, well, this is an interesting emotional subject, . . . What it feels like to get back together again after separation and the kind of ideas that come up and the way that emotion and physicality somehow are brought together.'" The groups' name came from two incompetent investigator characters in "The Adventures of Tintin" cartoon, Thomson and Thompson (identical doubles not twin brothers) (M. Donelson, allmusic, 2022; Wikipedia, 2022).

Lyrics:
I have a picture,
Pinned to my wall.
An image of you and of me and we're laughing and loving it all.
Look at our life now, tattered and torn.
We fuss and we fight and delight in the tears that we cry until dawn
Hold me now, warm my heart
Stay with me, let loving start (let loving start)
You say I'm a dreamer, we're two of a kind
Both of us searching for some perfect world we know we'll never find
So perhaps I should leave here, yeah yeah go far away
But you know that there's no where that I'd rather be than with you here today
Hold me now, warm my heart
Stay with me, let loving start (let loving start)
You ask if I love you, well what can I say?
You know that I do and if this is just one of those games that we play
So I'll sing you a new song, please don't cry anymore
And then I'll ask your forgiveness, though I don't know just what I'm
Asking it for
Hold me now, warm my heart
Stay with me, let loving start (let loving start)
