I Can't Hold On Lyrics - Squeeze

(Difford/Tilbrook) 

In the corner by the D.J. unit 

The flag of beauty my eyes salute it, 

She likes love 

By luck or labour 

She likes love 

But not for favour - can't hold on 

She keeps her lips on the straw she's sucking 

Looks up to me but her eyes see nothing, 

Love's her stare 

The steps to her heart 

Love's the climb 

The bite not her bark. 

I pour the milk into the cat's saucer 

I'm John Wayne as I'm walking towards her, 

She'd like to dance 

But not this minute 

She's the fish I'd love to fillet. 

I draw first with a stammer of verbal 

We dance like pigeons forever in circle, 

She likes to dance 

Her cocktails shaken 

She likes love 

And it's temptation

The lights flash green 

My envy lights up 

The lights just flash 

And I feel tied up, 

Love's for sale 

And I am sold on 

But there's no way 

That I can hold on 

I can't hold on
