Lyrics
[Intro]
When I (When I)
Had you (Had you)
I treated you bad and wrong, my dear
But since
Since you went away
Don't you know I (Hang around)
Sit around (Sit around)
With my head hangin' down
And I wonder (Wonder, wonder)
Who's
Lovin' you (You, you, you)
[Verse 1]
Ooh, my first mistake was
I wanted too much time
I had to have him morning, noon, and night
If I would have known then
The things that I know now
I might not have lost the time I complain about
[PreChorus]
Don't waste your time
Fighting blind
Minded thoughts
Of despair
[Chorus]
Hold on to your love
You got to hold on
Hold on to your love (Oh, oh, baby hold on)
Hold on to your love (Oh you got to hold on)
Hold on to your love, oh, woo
[Verse 2]
The art of playing games now
Is not the hearts you break
It's 'bout good love you make
When his heart's on fire
Give him love every day
Remember he needs space
Be patient and he'll give his heart to you
[PreChorus]
Don't waste your time
Fighting blind
Minded thoughts
Of despair
[Chorus]
Hold on to your love
You got to hold on
Hold on to your love (Hey)
You gotta hold on to your love
Hold on to your love (Yeah hey, oh baby, hold on)
Hold on to your love, oh, woo (Baby hold on)
[Verse 3]
Trust and honesty too
Must be the golden rule
You'll feel the strength of passion in your soul
Burn so deeply within (Burn, burn, burn, burn)
Oh, the magic that you share
So sacrifice and show how much you care
[PreChorus]
Don't waste your time
Fighting blind
Minded thoughts
Of despair
[Chorus]
Hold on to your love (You got to hold on)
Hold on to your love, oh, woo (Don't let go, keep the ties)
Hold on to your love (Hang on tight, and don't let go)
Hold on to your love, oh, woo (No, don't let go)
Hold on to your love
Hold on to your love, oh, woo
Hold on to your love (If you love him, if you need him, really want him)
Hold on to your love, oh, woo (Just keep on, just keep on)
[Outro]
Hanging on (Hold on)
Little trust, honesty, golden rule (Hold on)
Feel the strength of passion in your soul
It's burning so deep (Hold on)
Have faith, just keep the fire burnin' at home (Hold on)
Hey yeah, he'll come home to you (Hold on)
He'll be there for you
He'll want to have you all the time (Hold on)
Oh, just have a little faith (Hold on)
Don't be so blinded (Hold on)
