Hold On Me

I can hold my tongue for years I don't mind

For within that time, silent I recite thousands of poems about you

Until one of them comes true

I can hold my breath for years I won't get blue

On sweet sigh from you

In my memories the breath of life that tights me through

Till the air is clear enough to breathe around you

I'll keep holding on

Such a thrill when you're near, but a staggering feat

Holding still when I feel folks can hear my heartbeat

Your love may never flow my way still I'm gonna keep holding on

Shouldn't I just let go, since there's nothing left to do?

Time just melts away and the current grows stronger, pulling me downstream t’ward you

But until my love runs dry, I'm gonna keep holding on

Holding on, I can't help myself when you're near, my head goes wild and my heart beats like an eager child

I keep holding on, holding on
