Lyrics

Hold on to me like dancers used to do
look in my eyes until I’m seeing you
speak to me about your new ideas
share a secret dream with me

There’s no time off when you work for yourself
all day Long I’m how can I help
my face is aching from the strain
I may never smile again

Hold on to me like lovers on the screen
we’re still the way we’ve always been
the lovers that we were are memories
no one remembers that but you or me

If I have one drink then I’ll have to have more
I’ve been that way since before I was born
got to keep my reputation it’s all that I’ve got
dive to the bottom, float to the top

If I can’t be happy I may as well die
but I love too much to say good bye
I have brothers and sisters kids and a wife
you save my life, you save my life

Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me
Hold on to me

The say things are different now, times have changed
y’all understand it’s the same old same
got to keep your eyes open, stay relaxed
there’s no goin’ forward and there’s no goin’ back
