"Hold Me" is a song by Australian musical duo Savage Garden. It was released as the sixth overall single from their second and final studio album, Affirmation (1999). It was initially planned to be released on 8 August 2000 in the United States but was pulled at the last minute, with "Affirmation" being released instead.[1] Therefore, it was first released on 13 November 2000 in the United Kingdom.

"Hold Me" reached number 54 in Australia and became a top-20 hit in New Zealand and the United Kingdom. The music video features Darren walking around Borough Market, and streets in South London, whilst trucks drive in and out of them.

In a video posted on the band's Facebook page on 21 June 2015, singer Darren Hayes explained that "Hold Me" had been written about a marriage breaking down.
