Cornelia Jakobs

Cornelia is a singer, songwriter, and ‘Melodifestivalen’ winner from Sweden.

Jakobs began her recording career as part of the RedOne-produced girl band Love Generation, who released their self-titled debut in the summer of 2010. Sadly, the group lasted just three singles in the fickle world of pop.

Undeterred, Cornelia launched a solo career in 2018, and has been busy releasing singles, performing to sell out crowds across the country, and working on her first album.

With a father who is a famous rockstar in Sweden, and a grandmother who is a composer, music has always been a fundamental part of this pop star's life.

Lyrics of Hold Me Closer

No need to apologise
Cuz there‘s nothing to regret
Well this is not what I wanted
Guess all the good things come to an end

So baby bye bye, wish you the best
But most of alI I wish that I could love you less
Well maybe you‘re right, I‘ll find someone else
You say it isn‘t me but when did that ever help

Hold me closer, although you‘ll leave before the sunrise
Might be bleeding but don‘t you mind I‘ll be fine
Oh it kills me I found the right one at the wrong time
But until the sunrise
Hold tight
Hold tight


Maybe it happened to fast
I guess that I understand
You say that you‘ve never felt this way for anyone
and that‘s why it scares you to death

So baby bye bye, know It‘s for the best
Still I can‘t see how that would ease the pain in my chest

Hold me closer, although you‘ll leave before the sunrise
I‘ll be bleeding but don‘t you mind I‘ll be fine
Oh it kills me, I found the right one at the wrong time
But until the sunrise
Could you just hold me tight
I know I have to let go but just give me the night

Cuz tomorrow will hurt
hurt really bad
Cuz I‘m about to lose the best I ever had

Hold me closer, although you‘ll leave before the sunrise
I‘ll be bleeding but don‘t you mind I‘ll be fine
Oh it kills me I found the right one at the wrong time
But until the sunrise

Could you just hold me tight
I know I have to let go but just give me the night

Can‘t you see that you found the right one at the wrong time
it was just the wrong time
Hold tight
Hold tight
