What are the words to Holly Holy by Neil Diamond?

(Verse 1)

Now I've tried to live

By my own rules and survive

But a man can only live

That way 'til he starts to die

(Chorus)

So tell me, tell me

I don't wanna live in shadows, no more

I don't wanna live with darkness inside

Come and hold me

Take me holy, take me holy

(Verse 2)

I've spent years tryin'

Not to listen to the cryin'

But the sound can only break

A man in two, when it's you

(Chorus)

So tell me, tell me

I don't wanna live in shadows, no more

I don't wanna live with darkness inside

Come and hold me

Take me holy, take me holy

(Bridge)

There's a light

Shinin' down from a golden dome

And I'm walkin'

I won't turn back around, don't wanna hear that sound

(Chorus)

So tell me, tell me

I don't wanna live in shadows, no more

I don't wanna live with darkness inside

Come and hold me

Take me holy, take me holy

(Outro)

Take me holy, take me holy

Take me holy, take me holy

Take me holy, take me holy

Take me holy, take me holy
