Hold Onto Love

When I met you I was just a kid
Holes in my pockets, didn't care where I've been
Then you picked me up, said baby let's get clean
You don't turn around when you walk away
You don't close your eyes when you hear 'em say
Those city lights will blind you when you stare

This is how it feels to hold onto love
This is how it feels to hold onto love

You told me when you were twenty-three
You'd rather stop your heart than watch it bleed
But I'm still dying, lying on your floor
Looking up, tryna find the stars
But it's hard to sleep through all these scars
When you told me to shine, that's when you set me free
Yeah, yeah

This is how it feels to hold onto love
This is how it feels to hold onto love

The years keep coming
Oh, the years keep coming
I keep coming, calling out your name
Make it end, or make it begin again
I will make it end, or make it begin again
Hey, hey

This is how it feels to hold onto love
This is how it feels to hold onto love
This is how it feels to hold onto love
(You've got to hold, baby)
(You've got to hold onto love)
This is how it feels to hold onto love
(Hold onto me)
