Hold Out

Baby i guess you know my story

Baby i guess you know 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



Ahh 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 take the more we

Turn each other's hearts away

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..
