Hold Out Lyrics - Jackson Browne

Baby I guess you know my story 

Baby I guess you've heard my side 

It seems I've traded love for glory 

But I'm still not satisfied 

Given all the years all the cries and cheers 

Don't amount to much more than pride 

Take my love for you take tomorrow too 

There's not much left inside 

How we laughed when we first knew love 

Singing dum-de-lum-de-lie 

I taught you how to see life through love 

Then I taught you how to cry

And though I must have known 

How easily love is thrown 

I took some chances, I don't know why 

There's not much you can do 

You wish that I'd been true, darlin' so do I 

Now you better hold out go on and hold out 

Go ahead and hold out for what you know love can be 

Move on and hold out don't let your love be sold out 

If there's anyone who knows about it baby that's me 

Ah you're right, you can't forget the way I lied 

Time has seen you grow to lead your life alone 

Though you tried and tried, cried and cried 

Baby I guess you know my story 

Maybe there's not much left to say 

You know the more we talk the more we 

Turn each other's hearts away 

Photos 

Now I'll be leaving in the morning 

Leaving half of me behind 

To find the pieces life's been torn in 

And take whatever love I find 

But you better hold out, go on and hold out 

Just walk away and hold out for what you know love can be 

Move on and hold out don't let your love be sold out 

It's starting to be cold out for people who live like me 

Move on and hold out and somewhere later no doubt 

You'll find another hold out 

Someone just like you baby, wait and see
