Hold on

Hold on to yourself

for this is gonna hurt like hell.



Hold on

Hold on to yourself.

You know that only time can tell



what is it in me that refuses to believe

this isn't easier than the real thing.



My love

you know that you're my best friend.

You know that I'd do anything for you

and my love

let nothing come between us

my love for you is strong and true.



Am I in heaven here or

am I...

At the crossroads I am standing.



So now you're sleeping peaceful

I lie awake and pray

that you'll be strong tomorrow

and will see another day

and we will praise it

and love the light that brings a smile

across your face.



Oh god

if you're out there won't you hear me.

I know we're never talked before



and oh god

the man I love is leaving

won't you take him when he comes to your door.



Am I in heaven here or

am I in hell

at the crossroads I am standing.



So now you're sleeping peaceful

I lie awake and pray

that you'll be strong tomorrow

and we will see another day

and we will praise it

and love the light that brings a smile

across your face



Hold on

hold on to yourself

for this is gonna hurt like hell.
