Holdin' On Lyrics - Robert Cray

Our love was as strong as love could be 

But then someone got between you and me 

People said we were finished when you walked out the door 

I was so worried, I walked a hole in the floor 

But I'm holdin' court tonight 

Surprising all my friends 

I'm holdin' court tonight, baby 

'Cause I got you back again 

All the one nighters that I had to do 

I didn't think about what that would do to you 

Some smart guy thought that while I was away 

That he could just slip right in and take my place 

But I'm holdin' court tonight 

Surprising all my friends 

I'm holdin' court tonight, baby 

'Cause I got you back again 

I called you from [Incomprehensible] to talk about yesterday 

Nothing about I love you, there's just some bills to pay 

You said time and loneliness had made you weak 

It's hard not to listen when temptation speaks 

We talked about it 

And we set it straight 

And now I'm on the town, baby 

We're gonna celebrate 

I'm holdin' court tonight 

Surprising all my friends 

I'm holdin' court tonight, baby 

'Cause I got you back again 

I'm holdin' court tonight 

I'm holdin' court tonight 

I got my baby back again 

I'm holdin' court tonight, baby
