Hold On Lyrics - Singles - Rollins Band

it's amazing 

what you can get used to 

with your foot 

nailed to the floor 

and it's amazing 

the thoughts 

that go through your mind 

when she walks 

out the door 

and leaves you 

love that you're waiting for 

hoped for 

through days of cold 

when it came your way you thought somehow you've been blessed 

and for a while there you thought 

finally I'm alive 

and it will never die cause it's so strong 

and now you see 

how you sit on your own 

that you were wrong 

you were wrong 

you were wrong 

you were wrong 

and here comes the night 

so heavy on your shore 

in an hour 

that used to pass by so fast 

now drags you down and holds you at the bottom 

and the ocean 

the ocean of tears you've cried 

drowns you as you stare at the ceiling in the dark 

and you wish 

for one moment 

you can think 

of something else 

anything else 

anything else at all 

and no matter 

how hard you try 

everything leads back to one thing 

and all the times you thought you can do without 

now you see 

you were wrong 

when you thought you were strong 

you were wrong 

when you thought you were strong 

so wrong 

(instrumental) 

and even tough it seems 

that all the happiness you once knew 

was fleeting and gone forever 

it's a door that's closed 

a voice you never hear again 

and now you can look forward to a life that's cold 

you feel at the bottom 

but I swear one day you arise right back up to the top 

you must hold on 

hold on 

hold on 

through cold nights 

long nights 

so sad 

so heavy 

you feel 

so forgotten 

and until the day comes 

when true love finds you 

and it will 

you must hold on 

you must hold on 

you must hold on 

like I'm holding on 

I swear 

I never thought I have to sing this song 

but now 

I don't know 

I know 

hold on 

hold on 

hold on 

you've got to hold on 

hold on 

hold on 

hold on
