These are the years I was warned about, these are the days of dominoes and searching souls

This is the path that Im on right now and Im in a hole, Im in a hole

These are the tears Ive been holding back, the fears that grip me like a glove

And you my better half, these are the times that I need your love



Baby please, hold your head up when Ive fallen to my knees

Baby please, hold your heart out and be strong when Im weak

And if I fold, dont let me go, dont let me go



Funny how the time winds blow, to think when I was younger

All I wanted was to be old and now all I want is to pull it together

And if I never make the grade will you love me just that same

Will you still feel that spark, trust me with your heart



I was just thinking about when I started out and every twist and turn of the road

It may take a minor miracle but one thing I know, everyone grows



So, baby please, hold your head up when I buckle at the knees

And if Im cold, dont let me go, dont let me go
