As Long As You Hold On Lyrics

I'm too old to not speak the truth

I've spent too many years without you

I picked too many flowers that I couldn't use in spring

And lately these days move slowly

Life ain't got much to show me

But you break the glass on the screen and you pull me towards the light

And help me to see

This world can still be worth the fight

Cause there's a long way to go and a storms closing in

And I'm out on my own where I know I can't win if you're gone

But I promise I'll always be strong

As long as you hold on

Sometimes I'm afraid that I'm still

The same boy who hated high school

But tried to be smart for his mom and his dad and sister too

And now that they all don't need him

It's time that his own life begins

But he never cared too much for those hill you climb alone

Now there's a long way to go and a storms closing in

And I'm out on my own where I know I can't win if you're gone

But I promise I'll always be strong

As long as you hold on

As long as you hold on

As long as you hold on

Believe me

Stay near me

I need all your kindness to heal me

While I'm learning to love and to breathe in the same song

So baby please hold on

Oh baby please hold on

Oh baby please hold on

If you're down on your knees

Can't move and can't breathe

I'll always be here to hold on

Cause we can turn back this flood

With my hands and your love

As long as I know that you'll hold on

And if your light starts to fade

Or all these good things turn grey

I'll always be here holding on

Cause there's a long way to go

And a storms closing in

And I'm out on my own

Where I know I can't win if you're gone

But I promise I'll always be strong

As long as you hold on
